The City of Atlanta is stepping up its green game with the launch of a new project aimed at revitalizing the historic Chattahoochee Brick Company Site, this time with a twist—public input is not just requested, it’s integral. This coming Saturday, officials from the City of Atlanta Department of Parks and Recreation and the Department of Planning are bouncing the ball into the community’s court, hosting an open house that serves as more than just a meet-and-greet with the design team responsible for the new Atlanta RiverLands Memorial Park and Trail Network.
Residents of Atlanta, if you've ever had a burning desire to influence the cityscape, now's your chance. From 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., the open house at English Park Recreation Center will be open to all, with presentations unfurling the project's goals at 10:30 a.m. and again at 12:30 p.m. The event will dish out opportunities for locals to grill the consultant team, fork over questions, and stir in their own insights about the area. Truth be told, it’s a rare chance to feel like part of the city’s future, without the usual political rigmarole.
Slot this into your Saturday plans if you're anywhere near the Bolton Road area. The address is 1340 Bolton Road NW, Atlanta, GA 30331. Media types interested in the nitty-gritty: you’re asked to make a note, RSVP to [email protected]. Details? They’re a click away at the City of Atlanta’s announcement.
