  • Atlanta City Design: Aspiring to the Beloved Community
    Our Future City The Atlanta City Design Aspiring to the Beloved Community Atlanta City Studio @ATLCityStudio #designATL “Atlanta is the leading cultural and economic center of the Southeast precisely because of our legacy of inclusion.” Mayor Kasim Reed, 2017 Identity “The aftermath of nonviolence is reconciliation and the creation of the beloved community.” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., 1957 Equity Progress Ambition Access Nature 1 Equity Our challenge for Equity is the continuous, contentious, and often unappreciated work of ensuring that all the benefits of Nature, Access, Ambition, and Progress accrue fairly to everyone. 2 Progress Our challenge for Progress is to protect people and places with meaning from the market forces that will otherwise overrun them. 3 Ambition Our challenge for Ambition is to leverage the disruption of change to unlock new opportunities for people to do what they want with their lives. 4 Access Our challenge for Access is to update our hub of transportation for a new generation while also building a sense of community and place. 5 Nature Our challenge for Nature is to protect and expand the ecological value of our watersheds, forest, and habitat in the face of rapid urbanization. Urgency Metropolitan Atlanta is expected to grow by nearly 50% over the next couple of decades: from 5.5 million today to over 8 million. Urgency A larger region. A larger city. A lot more people. Not changing is not an option. The most strategic scenario for growth includes everyone. “If we want it to be, change is an opportunity to fuel the creation of the future we want.” Ryan Gravel, Founder of Sixpitch Design When we talk about design, we’re not merely describing the logical assembly of people, things and places.
