More than 1,000 business and civic leaders, residents and partners gathered at the Fox Theatre for the Midtown Alliance 2018 annual meeting on Feb. 13. “It was only due to the hard work of so many people that Midtown has become the jewel of the South,” said Midtown Alliance Board Chair Mark Toro in his opening remarks. Midtown Alliance President and CEO Kevin Green discussed current imperatives for Midtown amid an era of profound growth that has ushered in 5K new jobs announced for the district in the past 12 months and 30+ major development projects under construction or having cleared the development review process. Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms discussed economic strategies, sustainability initiatives and affordable housing, while NCR’s Chief Human Resources Officer Andrea Ledford spoke about the impetus for landing the company’s new global headquarters in the heart of Midtown. Keynote speaker Janette Sadik-Khan challenged attendees to think about the function of streets, and how they can do more for a city than just move cars.
