Grant Park Building Now A Movie Star
October 30, 2012
Lights! Camera! And now a recently-acquired Raulet property is getting some Action! | ||
Raulet Property Partners has converted an 85k SF commercial building in Grant Park to a film and TV production facility. Called Mailing Avenue Stageworks, the firm's Paul Raulet, John Raulet, and Tyler Edgarton invested in the vacant building at 1144 Mailing Ave this past summer for the purpose of marketing it to Georgia's booming entertainment industry. | ||
John tells us he had been hunting for a good studio facility, given his experience in scouting sites for other film productions in Georgia. ?Certain specifications that the industry requires had previously made the right building very difficult to find,? he says. Raulet officials say the facility is already being leased for a handful of months, but they're mum regarding what purpose. We hear through the grapevine that a movie called Last Vegas is in production there with legends Morgan Freeman, Kevin Kline, Michael Douglas and Robert De Niro passing through. (If you happen to have a great script about a real estate writer who gets caught in an international conspiracy and has to save Scarlett Johansson, you know where to drop it off.) | ||
