This creates a disconnected corridor and provides unattractive and difficult conditions for individuals wishing to walk between the areas with nicer aesthetics and well-kept conditions streetscapes. This discontinuity between areas is even more noticeable to motorists who drive along the corridor.

P 817 West Peachtree Street, NW P The Biltmore, Suite 601 P Atlanta, GA 30308 P (404) 419-8700 May 13, 2013 Niles Ford, Ph.D., City Manager City of Chamblee, GA 5468 Peachtree Road Chamblee, GA 30341 Dear Dr. Ford: Downtown Chamblee is a hidden gem situated in the heart of the Atlanta metropolitan region. Chamblee has a quaint character rich with history and poised for enhancement and growth. Chamblee was built, in part, on its combination of transportation assets. Freight, regional rail, air travel, and major vehicular routes all pass directly through the center of the community. Since Chamblee’s original LCI Plan in 2000, you have invested in the Town Center, helping new retail and residential developments come alive. The area has added residential units, small retail outlets, a large commercial shopping area, and streetscape enhancements to improve walkability. These investments have set the stage for private investment and community improvement. Over the last five years, private sector investment and development became stagnant as a casualty of the recession. With significant shifts in the regional marketplace, this LCI update will provide the City of Chamblee with an opportunity to clarify and augment its community goals and priorities and to envision and encourage appropriate infill development. Additionally, the plan will prioritize public investments to enhance the area’s character, connectivity, and accessibility.
