A plan to cap part of Atlanta’s Downtown connector with a park is coming more into focus. Planners behind the project known as “The Stitch” recently released new renderings, and they’re now leading walking tours of the area.
The ultimate vision is to create a three-quarter-mile-long park on top of the connector, between Downtown and Midtown.
The first phase will cover the interstate between Peachtree and Courtland streets.
