The NBC bureau here in Atlanta was supposed to move into our new building "The Hill" not long after the Olympics. We heard September, then October, then December. Then, of course, came (and continues) speculation that the few NBC folks are going to move over to The Weather Channel's HQ up in the Galleria area.
But last I heard, NBC still is moving in here (despite the fact that we don't receive MSNBC in the building (!?)) in "weeks". Steve Capus came here about a week and a half before the general election and swore up and down that they'd move in by mid-December. Then he promptly went on a visit to TWC's HQ. So who knows....
