    Westside Future Fund Creating the Conditions for Progress Westside Future Fund Target Neighborhoods • Four (4) neighborhoods totaling approximately 2.26 Square Miles: English Avenue, Vine City, Ashview Heights, and Atlanta University Center Understanding the Issues • The target Westside neighborhoods’ population has decreased by approximately 60% since 1960. Today, they have a population of about 15,568 residents. • 43% of WFF target area families live below the federal poverty line, with English Avenue at the highest percentage (59%). • The WFF target area’s housing vacancy rate (36%) is more than twice the City of Atlanta’s (17%) and more than three times the Atlanta metro’s (10%). • More than half (53%) of homes in the WFF target area are vacant lots or structures. Only 8% of properties are occupied by homeowners, compared to 45% in the City of Atlanta. • The median household income for the WFF target area is $24,778, with all four neighborhoods categorized as “very low- rietta St N e income,” earning less than 50% of the area average median income.

  • MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DRIVE INNOVATION CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT Request for Proposals Bronze Benches with Seated Figures OVERVIEW
    MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DRIVE INNOVATION CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT Request for Proposals Bronze Benches with Seated Figures OVERVIEW • The City of Atlanta Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs invites artists and artist teams to submit proposals for a series of site-specific, life-sized, bronze statues of civil-rights leaders seated on bronze benches that will be installed on MLK Drive in Mozley Park in Atlanta, Georgia. We will install the sculptures and benches in four locations along MLK in Mozley Park and install inlaid information on each leader in front of the benches. The sculptures, bench design, and constructions costs must be integrated into the budget of the artist selected. • The area’s culture is internationally significant. It was home to intellectual leaders of human rights, including W.E.B. DuBois, Booker T. Washington, and the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr. • The Renew Atlanta initiative that is sponsoring this installation along with several others along the corridor will address vehicular and pedestrian safety concerns, provide additional pedestrian and bicycle access through the implementation of new multi-use trails, and introduce a new linear park along the corridor in addition to several public art installations. The goal is to transform MLK, Jr. Drive into an art filled pedestrian and bicycle friendly corridor with improved access to the Atlanta BeltLine and MARTA bus service. • Years of community-driven planning, detailed analyses, stakeholder support, and political and financial commitment have come together and integrated social justice to transform the corridor in the heart of Atlanta into a world-class “boulevard.” The goal of the coming together of these entities is to transform through tailored, multi-modal improvements and complementary workforce capacity building, business recruitment, socio-cultural preservation, and green infrastructure.
