Microsoft has filed a Developments of Regional Impact application with the Georgia Department of Community Affairs for a project called ATL50, located at 5235 Stonewall Tell Road in Union City, southwest of Atlanta in Fulton County. The plan calls for two three-story buildings totaling 910,000 square feet on an 88-acre parcel, with the site expected to launch in 2032. Microsoft already has a significant presence across Georgia, with facilities in Fairburn, Douglasville, Palmetto, Rome, East Point, and Tyrone. A separate project reportedly in development with EdgeConneX on the north side of South Fulton Parkway in Union City is said to total 324MW across 2.1 million square feet.
The ATL50 filing adds to Microsoft's already extensive Georgia footprint and signals continued hyperscaler investment in the Atlanta metro area as a major data center market. The simultaneous presence of a separate reported 324MW EdgeConneX partnership nearby suggests Union City is emerging as a concentrated hub for large-scale cloud infrastructure in the Southeast.
Microsoft's filing for a new two-building campus outside Atlanta signals continued hyperscaler expansion into Georgia, a notable geographic development given the named company and active regulatory filing. This is a distinct event from any previously published Microsoft stories.
