Atlanta / Athenahealth to bring 500 jobs

A major healthcare software firm will expand in Atlanta, bringing 500 highly-paid jobs to the city in a deal that will help jump start redevelopment of the former City Hall East, a person with knowledge of the deal said.

Massachusetts-based Athenahealth, a player in the growing industry of healthcare information technology, will become the lead office tenant at the building rechristened as Ponce City Market, the ambitious redevelopment of the hulking former government center and Sears warehouse, the person said.
