Beltline’s Grant Park greenspace plan to be displayed
February 12, 2008 at 1:43 pm by Thomas Wheatley in News
As promised, the Beltline continues ahead. Planners for the southeast quadrant — the segment of the massive project that curves south of I-20 and encompasses Grant Park — will unveil the draft park master plan for Boulevard Crossing on Feb. 21, 6:30 p.m., at the Animal Rescue Center at Zoo Atlanta. The 21-acre park is one of several new greenspaces created by the Beltline.
Stakeholders who attended a recent study group said they favored an urban confluence concept — one that would blend aspects of the city with a traditional park idea. You’d see an amphitheater with a great lawn a la Central Park’s Sheep Meadow.
