Peachtree Corners, Georgia
Corners, GEORGIA Driving innovation C uriouser and Curiouser. That one phrase borrowed from famed writer Lewis Carroll’s Alice In Wonderland succinctly sums up the driving force behind the city of Peachtree Corners in Gwinnett County, Georgia. Through curiosity comes the need to fine-tune, enhance, advance, and better our world for both present and future generations. That was the dream of Georgia-Tech graduate and developer Paul Duke in the late 1960s. He envisioned a planned community in which area graduating students would make their homes, work, and raise their families. His vision included the 500-acre Technology Park Atlanta – a campus of low-rise buildings that attracts high-tech and Fortune 500 industries. Since the City’s founding in July 2012, Peachtree Corners has paid homage to Duke’s dream. Technology Park continues to attract top-tiered engineering talent from across the country, while also serving as headquarters for many regional, national and international corporations that thrive in the pro-business environment, which offers a zero millage rate.
