The Vision
Atlanta is a global city of international renown, but with a distinctly
southern charm; a city of regional scale but with small-town hospitality;
a city with incredible diversity, but a distinct identity. Downtown
stands on the threshold of
a new age, one of heightened activity and
greater prosperity. The community has developed its vision for the future.
Imagine Downtown is about a guiding vision for the future of Downtown.
The vision for the future of Downtown is….
- Building new walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods on and around Centennial
Hill
- Bridging the gaps in Downtown created by the Interstate
- Re-establishing Peachtree as the premier street of the Southeast
- Connecting all of Georgia through a state-of-the-art multimodal transportation
hub
- Invigorating Auburn Avenue as the dynamic center of African-American
culture, heritage and advancement
- Demonstrating the benefits of transit-oriented development around
the Garnett MARTA station
- Uniting Downtown and Midtown in a revitalized South of North (SoNo)
neighborhood
- Supporting the Centennial Olympic Park district as Atlanta’s
showpiece, world-class destination
