Thursday morning, bulldozers crunched through trees near the former trailhead at Intrenchment Creek Park.

The paved walking path lay crushed and pushed to the edges of the forest, and a gazebo sat flipped upside down on the side of the road.

Demolition has started at the entrance to Intrenchment Creek Park in DeKalb County on land adjacent to the proposed Atlanta Public Safety Training Facility, often referred to as “Cop City.”
