Officials: Midtown's Coda at Tech Square complex on leasing roll. Block-sized West Peachtree Street innovation hub inks office deals with growing AI companies. March 11, 2026, 1:49PM Josh Green 2 Comments Seven years after it officially debuted, a high-rise complex built to be Midtown's beating heart of technological innovation has signed a lease with another growing, AI-focused company. Atlanta-based, national developer Portman announced this week AI security company Airia has signed a lease for 10,000 square feet of offices at Coda at Tech Square, with plans to graduate up from a coworking space at the 756 W. Peachtree St. complex next month. Airia, described as a "rapidly growing enterprise AI security, orchestration, and governance platform," was founded 16 months ago and has grown to about 170 employees and 500 customers. The company's plans at Coda call for establishing a centralized hub for future growth. Airia's commitment at Coda follows a lease recently inked with another growing AI company, Tractian, a platform designed to prevent industrial machine failures and increase production.

"Coda places us directly within one of the country's most cutting-edge environments, surrounded by talent, research, and enterprise partners," said Kevin Kiley, Airia CEO, in this week's announcement. "This location allows us to scale our platform and help organizations adopt AI quickly, securely, and with confidence." Airia's platform specializes in deploying AI for large organizations in highly regulated, complex environments. Its leadership team includes Atlanta tech industry success stories, including John Marshall, president and CEO of AirWatch. Inside a Coda social area with Tech Square views.

The glassy, L-shaped structure stands just north of 4th Street, between Spring and West Peachtree streets, and features 25,000 square feet of retail, 20,000 square feet of outdoor space, and a 9.6-MW data center. Coda claims 650,000 square feet of office space total, with some tenants linked together by a 17-story spiral staircase. (Georgia Tech, the anchor tenant, leases about half of that square footage.) Another signature, anchor feature is the building's Collaborative Core, a 35,000-square-foot social and working space. Capital Real Estate Group represented Airia in the Coda lease.
