Atlanta Office to Occupy Former City Club of Buckhead Space

October 27, 2020


Atlanta – Transwestern Real Estate Services (TRS) announces its Southeast regional headquarters is departing Tower Place after 10 years and relocating to the City Club of Buckhead’s former space at AFC Buckhead, a 914,774-square-foot office campus at 3344 Peachtree Road NE in Atlanta. Transwestern will occupy AFC’s top two floors when the move is complete in March 2021. Transwestern provides leasing and property management services for the Class A property on behalf of owner Sumitomo Corporation of Americas.

“AFC Buckhead offers our team members a new beginning in the wake of COVID-19 in a dramatic two-story space that will become a showpiece for our office and for the building,” said Bruce Ford, Transwestern’s East Region President. “We will have room to continue expanding every aspect of our services with top-notch professionals, while deepening our long-standing relationship with Sumitomo. We engaged our team in a collaborative design process to reimagine our office environment and identify opportunities to create a modern, innovative workplace that matches our brand, supports our culture and will meet our evolving needs.”

One of the city’s most recognizable addresses, AFC is a three-building complex in Atlanta’s financial district. Located in the epicenter of Buckhead, the property enjoys direct access to Highway 400 and walkability to MARTA’s Buckhead station and neighboring restaurants and retail.  

The office complex features an outdoor park with Peachtree Road access and a recently renovated atrium with tables and soft seating. Additional amenities include AFC’s Athletic Club & Spa, Highland Bakery, Blue Chip Café and Truist Bank, a florist, hair salon, and car detailing and dry cleaning services.

“AFC Buckhead is unlike any other office property in Atlanta. The 18th and 19th floors offer a unique layout that can’t be found anywhere else with a two-story atrium and incredible views of Buckhead, Midtown and downtown,” said Kristine Maggio, Transwestern Executive Vice President. “When we started discussing the future of our office needs, we found AFC’s location, amenities and one-of-a-kind setting checked all the boxes.”
