  • 1 REMARKS by GEORGIA TECH PRESIDENT G. WAYNE CLOUGH Opening of Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center September 4, 2003 Thank
    REMARKS BY GEORGIA TECH PRESIDENT G. WAYNE CLOUGH Opening of Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center September 4, 2003 Thank you, Susan (Hill). This is a very exciting day for us, as we mark the official opening of the Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center. After the Downtown Connector was built, separating Georgia Tech from Midtown Atlanta, the property where we are today deteriorated rapidly, and for many years it remained an eyesore of vacant lots and abandoned buildings. Then Georgia Tech made a strategic decision to purchase the land, and in conjunction with area businesses and the Midtown Alliance neighborhood organization, we developed a plan for its use. Even the city of Atlanta and the state of Georgia eventually became participants, especially in the ongoing effort to improve the Fifth Street Bridge, which, when it is completed, will transform this back door to the front door of Georgia Tech’s campus. Over the past three years, more than $300 million has been poured into the construction of a complex of buildings totaling more than 2.5 million square feet and lining either side of Fifth Street between the Connector and the Biltmore. Technology Square gathers Georgia Tech’s economic development resources in a place where our students, faculty, and staff can be incorporated into and contribute to the city’s economic heartbeat and help to drive the development of a signature technology corridor for Atlanta and Georgia. Technology Square also includes wide, pedestrian-friendly sidewalks and a number of retail outlets, anchored by Barnes & Noble @ Georgia Tech to serve our students, faculty, and staff and Midtown workers and residents alike.

  • Running Head: VIRGINIA-HIGHLAND COMMUNITY ANALYSIS 1
    Running Head: VIRGINIA-HIGHLAND COMMUNITY ANALYSIS 1 Virginia-Highland Community Analysis Gabriella Rich Georgia State University VIRGINIA-HIGHLAND COMMUNITY ANALYSIS 2 Abstract This paper analyzes the neighborhood of Virginia-Highland, located just outside of Downtown Atlanta, Georgia. Information on the community was gathered through three interviews with area residents, three interviews with local stakeholders, attendance at two Virginia-Highland Civic Association (VHCA) meetings, the VHCA website, and United States census data. Issues that arose in the interviews included crime, volunteerism, and diversity. A major strength of the community is the mutually beneficial relationship between residents and small business owners. Weaknesses of the community include a lack of racial and socioeconomic diversity and a decrease in civic involvement over time. In order to make improvements to the neighborhood, the VHCA should focus its efforts on recruiting younger members of the community to its cause. Introduction The neighborhood of Virginia-Highland is located to the northeast of Downtown Atlanta, Georgia in Fulton County. The neighborhood is located in zip code 30306 and includes census block groups 1-2, 2-4, 2-5, 14-1, 14-2, 15-2, 15-3, and 15-4 (vahi.org) (see Figure A for map). Its boundaries include Amsterdam Avenue and the Morningside/Lenox park neighborhood to the north, Ponce de Leon Avenue and the Poncey-Highland neighborhood to the south, Briarcliff Road, Druid Hills (unincorporated DeKalb County), Druid Hills (City of Atlanta), and the Atkins Park neighborhood to the east, and the BeltLine and Piedmont Park/Midtown to the west (vahi.org) (see Figure B for map).

  • Executive Summary Lindbergh Tsads 2001
    LINDBERGH TSADS 2001 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 LINDBERGH TSADS 2001 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PART ONE STUDY PARAMETERS Introduction Picture, if you will, a tree-lined urban neighborhood where you can live, work, shop, and play without ever needing a car. Homes, offices, restaurants, and shops are all within a short walk of one another and are connected by a system of pleasant, tree-lined sidewalks, greenways, and bicycle facilities. Sidewalk cafes, public plazas, and other urban open space amenities beautify the area and provide opportunities for socializing with neighbors. At the center of this urban neighborhood, a MARTA transit station puts you within a few minute train ride of Downtown, Midtown, Buckhead, the airport, and Pe- rimeter Center, and a short bus ride of Emory University, Cheshire Bridge Road, and other intown neighborhoods. This is the vision for the Lindbergh transit station area. Purpose The purpose of the 2000 Lindbergh Transportation Area Development Study (TSADS) is to help achieve this vision by providing a concept plan and action program for the development of a transit oriented neighborhood around the Lindbergh MARTA transit station. The study was developed by the City of Atlanta’s Department of Planning, Development and Neighborhood Conservation, Bureau of Planning utilizing resources developed by Pickering Firm, Inc. and its consultants in cooperation with MARTA, and a Planning Advisory Committee (PAC). The PAC was made up of representatives from the study area neighborhoods, as well as commercial property owners and managers. Context The Lindbergh Transit Station Area is lo- cated in northeast Atlanta at the conver- gence of the North and Northeast lines along MARTA's North-South rail line.
