Hold on to your 404 and 678 area codes ATL because these area codes are no longer being issued.
The Atlanta Journal- Constitution reported that, “for Downtown Atlanta and surrounding areas, the number is going to be 470,” John Manning, the senior director for the Virginia-based North American Number Planning Association, told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “404 just recently assigned its last prefix.”
The historic 404 area code has been associated with Atlanta since 1947. While area codes 770 and 678 were issued in the mid and late 1990's.
Current phone numbers will not be changed but all new numbers will include the 470.
