Third Rail Studios, a 270,000-square-foot space on the former site of the General Motors Assembly Plant in Doraville, is the newest hat in the ring. Unlike the others, however, the studio will be the nucleus of a major media complex called ASSEMBLY, Doraville, USA.
A co-venture of the Integral Group and Capstone South Properties, ASSEMBLY is intended to facilitate what Capstone chief Michael Hahn calls “creative convergence.”

The project will include space for production support, administrative offices and the Yards district, a destination for dining, entertainment and synergistic businesses, such as studios for music recording, animation, video games and graphic designers. Hahn expects Third Rail Studios, named for the three rail lines that served the plant, and part of the Yards district to open by the end of this year. The rest will be completed in stages.
