ATLANTA-After a two-year delay, locally based Six Continents Hotels Americas has broken ground for a flagship, five-star InterContinental hotel in the city’s affluent Buckhead neighborhood. The hotel is slated to open in 2004.

Development costs are at least $100 million, according to published reports which say the hotel company paid about $10.5 million to a Germany-based company for the 3.7-acre site.

Six Continents officials couldn’t be reached at GlobeSt.com’s publication deadline to verify the purchase price and learn the seller’s identity. A prepared statement from the company didn’t disclose that information. But according to GlobeSt.com research, the land deal is the biggest of its kind this year in metro Atlanta.
