Podcast 300 – Why Perimeter Center Defines Dunwoody – Mark Galvin with Discover Dunwoody Perimeter Mall isn’t just a place to shop, it’s the backbone of Dunwoody’s economy. Mark Galvin from Discover Dunwoody returns with all the local scoop, including why the mall still matters more than ever. It’s Dunwoody’s biggest taxpayer, a major job hub, and a magnet for out-of-town visitors. Nearly 9 out of 10 shoppers come from outside the city, which means Perimeter Center brings in big money without burdening residents. They talk about what’s new around town: Grana’s pasta classes, Wahaka’s bold flavors, Lazy Dog’s Dunwoody success, and the much-anticipated Chubby Cattle near P.F. Chang’s. Van Leeuwen Ice Cream and Foxtail Coffee are also headed our way. Month after month, Matt continues to ask Mark about city programs he’s not directly involved with, just to keep him on his toes. Dunwoody 101 is that topic this week. This hands-on program gives residents a behind-the-scenes look at how the city government works. The City is using the same trolley bus from the ReDiscover Dunwoody Trolley Tour to shuttle Dunwoody 101 participants around town. Just another example of how different groups are sharing resources to make the city even better connected. https://whatsupdunwoody.com/podcast-300-why-perimeter-center-still-defines-dunwoody-mark-galvin-with-discover-dunwoody/ What’s Up Dunwoody Links: 🎧 All the podcast episodes. whatsupdunwoody.com/podcasts 🔥 Local events around the city. whatsupdunwoody.com/events 🍔 Dunwoody restaurant guide. whatsupdunwoody.com/food 🏠 Homes for sale. whatsupdunwoody.com/homes 🦷 Best orthodontist in town. whatsupdunwoody.com/village 🚎 Dunwoody trolley tour. whatsupdunwoody.com/tour 📍 Find local businesses. whatsupdunwoody.com/local 🛎️ Book a hotel staycation. whatsupdunwoody.com/hotels 📫 Join our email list. whatsupdunwoody.com/email ⚽️ Get to know Matt. whatsupdunwoody.com/matt 🦸🏻♂️ Origin story of the podcast. whatsupdunwoody.com/origins 👕 What’s Up Dunwoody merch. whatsupdunwoody.com/merch
