Emory Healthcare May Take Over Part Of Northlake Mall

Emory Healthcare will occupy the former Sears building and an added portion of the 1 million-square-foot mall, with an option for more space in the future. Employees will begin moving into the renovated and designed space in late 2021, with a second wave coming in late 2022, Emory said.

Struggling Northlake Mall in Atlanta may get some much-needed vitality from a deep-pocketed new tenant: Emory Healthcare.

Emory is considering investing at least $20 million in an administrative offices project that would take over about one-third of the mall, along I-285 near Tucker, according to a recent report by the Atlanta Business Chronicle.

Administrative offices, a training and conference center and a new centralized medical lab are possible uses of the space, the Business Chronicle reported.
