MARTA’s overarching strategic goals for Transit Oriented Development include: • To generate greater transit ridership – a natural consequence of clustering mixed-use development around stations and along corridors; • To generate a return on MARTA’s transit investment- through enhanced passenger revenues, greater federal support, and development on MARTA property; and • To promote a sustainable, affordable and growing future for the people of Metro Atlanta. 4 Office of Transit Oriented Development and Real Estate Transit Oriented Development Guidelines 5 Office of Transit Oriented Development and Real Estate TOD Guidelines • Station-area development that is compact and dense relative to its surroundings – allows more people to live, work, shop, or go to school within walking distance of the station • A rich mix of land uses – strengthens the link between transit and development, creates 24/7 places, allows efficient use of system • A great public realm – features pedestrian-oriented development with a grid of small, navigable blocks, sidewalks throughout, active uses at street-level, attractive amenities, lighting, and way-finding • A new approach to parking - requires less dedicated parking - shared as much as possible and designed so as not to dominate the visual or pedestrian environment 6 Office of Transit Oriented Development and Real Estate Policies for Implementing TOD Guidelines • Joint Development Procurement and Land Disposition: A joint development project requires an affirmative action by MARTA, including one or more Board votes • Access to Stations: MARTA will take into account the station’s transit functions as well as potential TOD, and adopt the Station Access Hierarchy • Parking and TOD: MARTA will seek to limit parking capacity to that which is genuinely needed in a transit setting, to encourage shared parking, and to ensure that parking is designed in a manner compatible with TOD • Affordable Housing: MARTA will apply a policy goal of 20% affordability, on average, to joint development projects • Sustainable Building Practices: MARTA expects joint development partners to embrace sustainable design, construction, and operating practices at the project level • Intergovernmental Activities: MARTA will take the initiative in interacting with other government agencies and jurisdictions, consistent with its role as a public land owner and project sponsor • Participation in Station-Area Development Reviews: MARTA’s will play a proactive role in the planning and review of all station-area development proposals, 7 including those not involving joint development Office of Transit Oriented Development and Real Estate Sample of Existing Joint Developments 8 Office of Transit Oriented Development and Real Estate Arts Center Station – One Atlantic Center • Executed 99-Year Lease Agreement in 1983 • 1 Million Sq. ft., Class A (f.k.a “IBM Tower”) • Completed in 1987 on 3.08 Acres – Pope & Land • Initial Lease Term Expires in 2033 • Annual Ground Rent = $1.2 Million to MARTA for Transit Operations 9 Office of Transit Oriented Development and Real Estate Lenox Station – Resurgens Plaza • Executed 60 –Year Ground Lease in 1984 • 400,000 S.F.

    piedmont area transportation study final report Several portions of the corridor, such as near the northern and southern activity centers, do have more consistent and attractive streetscape environments. However, other portions existing of the corridor have not received improvements during recent years. 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. Zoning Structure Portions of the corridor lie within Special Public Interest (SPI) districts which provide an additional layer of zoning. These areas are located on the east side of Piedmont Road north of Peachtree Road as well as on both sides of Above: Recently completed Phase I Peachtree Road Piedmont Road in the Lindbergh Center Complete Streets streetsape area. These overlay districts allow for Right: Lindbergh Center as common goals pertaining to aesthetics, a model of good streetscape attractiveness to all user groups, and unity of appearance in these locations as development occurs. Several areas that are prime for redevelopment are currently not within overlay districts (along the west side of Piedmont Road south and north of Peachtree Road), making them vulnerable to development that does not support the common goals of the corridor. “ … We have worked with the City of Atlanta very closely throughout this process so that our recom- mendations can be put directly into the plan they create for the entire city. That gives Buckhead a fast start on making vital transportation improvements.” 22 23 piedmont piedmont area area transportation transportation study final report study final report 3.0 Existing Conditions The current state of Piedmont Road is the result of decades of substantial use without requisite investment in maintenance and improvement to the transit, pedestrian, bicycle, and roadway infrastructure along the corridor.

    Decatur's Transportation Network, 2007

    3 • Decatur’s Transportation Network, 2007 CHAPTER • 3 Decatur’s Transportation Network, 2007 othing speaks louder of a city’s transportation system than how its residents use it. A public survey conducted as part of the CTP revealed that sixty-seven N percent of commuters drive alone to get to work or school. Over 20 percent of commuters in Decatur either walk, bike or take transit. Even more interesting, 79 percent of residents reported having walked or ridden a bike to downtown Decatur. Additionally, the majority of residents feel that it is easy to get around the City. These results indicate a system that already provides a lot of choice for travelers. The following sections detail the extent of these choices, i.e. the facilities that make up the existing Decatur transportation network. The CTP uses this snapshot of how Decatur gets around in 2007 to recommend how the City can build upon its existing strengths to realize its vision of a healthy and well-connected community. Existing Street Network Streets are where it all comes together for travel in and through Decatur. The streets and their edges provide places for people to walk, bicycle and travel in buses and other vehicles. Compared with the MARTA rail system and off-road paths and greenways, the street system in Decatur accommodates the majority of travel and is detailed below. Roadway Classification in Decatur In 1974, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) published the manual Highway Functional Classification - Concepts, Criteria and Procedures. The manual was revised in 1989 and forms the basis of this roadway classification inventory.
