The Atlanta City Council approved a $ 3.2 million incentives package during Tuesday’s meeting that will pave the way for electronics company NCR’s relocation to Midtown Atlanta, bringing up to 3,600 jobs into the city.

“I am grateful to my council colleagues for their support of these incentives. This is a win-win for Midtown and the city as a whole,” said City Councilmember Kwanza Hall, who represents the area.

The new campus will be located at Centergy North at Technology Square on Spring Street and will be ready ready by 2017 or early 2018. NCR’s move from near Duluth in Gwinnett County is expected to bring 3,500 to 4,000 jobs into the city.
