Getting Your Bearings

About The Westside TAD

Created in 1992 by the City of Atlanta, Fulton County and the Atlanta School Board, the Westside TAD is located in the center of the City of Atlanta and includes the western portion of the central business district (“Downtown”) and adjacent neighborhoods to the west. As the City of Atlanta’s redevelopment agent, Invest Atlanta is responsible for promoting positive development within the Westside TAD and administering the tax allocation district financing process.

The Westside TAD area is highly accessible, served by multiple MARTA stations, three interstate highways, and the Atlanta Streetcar. The area is characterized by high-density commercial development and is home to the Georgia World Congress Center, Phillips Arena, the Mercedes-Benz Stadium and Centennial Olympic Park, and the accompanying tourism that comes with such facilities.

The neighborhoods of Vine City and English Avenue to the west are historic single-family communities which have experienced disinvestment and population decline over the past several decades. Westside TAD financial incentives focus on these neighborhoods to improve quality of life for residents in these communities and encourage a more equitable redevelopment future.
