The company's original name, Ghost Planet Industries, came from Space Ghost's fictional planet, where the animated talk show Space Ghost Coast to Coast was supposedly filmed. The street is named for early Atlanta settler Ammi Williams. Soon after CNN moved into the CNN Center in downtown Atlanta in the early 1980s, other Turner operations moved into the Techwood campus, an old country club which became the first headquarters for CNN. The facility began as a carpet factory and was purchased by Turner as overflow offices for, among other things, set building and woodworking facilities, as well as CNN Field Engineering. The current name of the company originates from the location of its headquarters building – which is also the home office for Adult Swim – at 1065 Williams Street NW in Atlanta, Georgia near the current offices of TBS and TNT on Techwood Drive. Michael Ouweleen was named president in 2020. In 2019, co-founder Lazzo retired from the company, with business partner and co-founder Crofford retiring the following year. Mike Lazzo and Keith Crofford oversaw operations for the building for most of its existence.
