Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms will play host to a public meeting on the Gulch project today at 6 p.m. at City Hall.

The meeting will outline the up to $5 billion proposal for a mix of office buildings, apartments, retail space and hotels between the Five Points MARTA station and Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The proposal calls for up to $1.75 billion in public financing that the developer and Bottoms have said are needed to help make the project a reality.

The meeting is scheduled to last until 7:30 p.m., and will be held in the Old Council Chambers. Overflow seating is expected to be located in City Council chambers.
