  • Ansley Mall & the Clear Creek Greenway & Watershed
    INTRODUCTION The BeltLine Subarea 6 site lies within the Peachtree Creek Watershed within the larger Upper Chattahoochee Watershed. Clear Creek feeds into Peachtree Creek, and eventually into the Chattahoochee River. The creek flows from Historic Old Fourth Ward Park to Orme Park in Virginia Highland near Grady High School, behind Ansley Mall through Ansley Golf Club, through the Armour Industrial area, behind Brookwood Hills, finally merging into Peachtree Creek. The Ansley Mall site is located near the intersection of Piedmont Avenue NE and Monroe Drive NE in the Piedmont Heights neighborhood. Parts of the creek were previously piped in the 1930s, and the Piedmont Park Conservancy has worked to uncover some of these sections. The creek is known for being polluted by sewage overflows within the City, and signs posted near the creek warn the public of these dangers. Recent projects near or effecting this Subarea include the 53 acre expansion of Piedmont Park into the North Woods for publicly accessible greenspace, as well as Historic Old Fourth Ward Park, which serves as a detention pond in an area south of the project area known for intense flooding issues. The BeltLine Subarea 6 Master Plan recommends the redevelopment of Ansley Mall into a mixed use development that acts as a central activity center for this area of the city. This proposal for BeltLine Subarea 6 begins with an understanding of the site’s position within the Peachtree Creek Watershed, the hydrology and its changing characteristics for the next generation, and the relationship of site conditions, stormwater management, and public/private spaces.
