 Cousins has completed renovations of Promenade, including a redesigned 15th street plaza and entrance, as well as a new fitness facility, chef-driven Bistro 1230 and The Bean Counter coffee shop.

 “Frazier & Deeter is a wonderful addition to the building and we look forward to a long and successful relationship,” said Larry Gellerstedt, CEO of Cousins Properties. “The re-location of another high-profile headquarters further validates our investment in Promenade.”
