Georgia's Real Estate Boom Has a Complexity Problem

Georgia's Department of Economic Development recently reported that the State posted its second consecutive record year for business investment in fiscal year 2026. The Global Commerce team supported 436 new locations and expansions , representing roughly $35.2 billion in investment, up from $26.3 billion the year before, including an estimated 25,300 new jobs. Seventy-five percent of those projects were outside the 10-county Atlanta metro region. The Port of Savannah closed out its second busiest year on record in 2025 , handling nearly 5.7 million TEUs, trailing only 2022.

Statesboro Mall in Statesboro, GA grew around Belk, raised its ceilings, and lost JCPenney. What's left now?

Belk moves to U.S. 80, and one bank blocks another. Belk had run its Statesboro store downtown since 1950. In 1970 the department store moved out to Northside Drive East, the local stretch of U.S. 80, on a site reached from Brannen Street and Lovett Road, and it was open there before the rest of the project was finished.
