By the 2010s, Atlanta's once-trendy, urban core complex was being criticized for its introverted design, which (according to some) insulated its patrons from surrounding street-life. It was decided that a major renovation and reconfiguration was needed to make the facility more connected with its surroundings. Work commenced on a remodeling project in October 2017.

The primary facet of a new & improved Peachtree Center is its Courtyard; a redress of the area lying between the Peachtree North and Peachtree South office towers. Previously known as the Peachtree Street Level, this new Plaza Level now provides public seating and includes a glass-enclosed staircase connecting to the Gallery Level of the shopping mall below.

Post-renovation, the previous MALL AT PEACHTREE CENTER is officially known as THE HUB.

A new collection of boutiques and bistros has been added to those already existing. In all, THE HUB houses over fifty stores, restaurants and services.
