 ATLANTA (AP) - Workers struggled to their offices Monday through debris and snarled traffic days after a tornado struck downtown, but no long-term effects on the city's lucrative convention and tourism industry were anticipated.
The twister knocked hundreds of hotel rooms out of commission and significantly damaged the city's largest convention venue, the Georgia World Congress Center, said Spurgeon Richardson, president and CEO of the Atlanta Convention & Visitors Bureau.
"We are open for business," Richardson told reporters.
