Prior to joining Antares, Macleod was managing director of Atlantic Station, a 138-acre mixed-use project in midtown Atlanta, where he had principal responsibility for the 811,000 s/f of retail development.

Antares has purchased three South End parcels comprising a total of 82 acres over the past year. The land will be converted into a dynamic, mixed-use neighborhood that will provide new housing, generate tax revenues and contributes to Stamford's quality of life.
Demolition activity has already begun on former Pitney Bowes industrial site, located in Peninsula Bay. The 22-acre property has been largely unoccupied since 2004.
