The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) recently announced that a team led by Forest City Enterprises, Cousins Properties and The Integral Group had been selected to plan, design and develop one of the largest transit-oriented projects in the country, the Atlanta Multi-Modal Terminal.  Urban Collage is part of a talented design team that includes FXFowle, Cooper Carry, Parsons Brinckerhoff and Kimley-Horn.  Work will include design of the central station for Georgia’s transit and commuter system and associated mixed use development of the “gulch” in Downtown Atlanta.

The Georgetown/North Shallowford Community Area Master Plan is scheduled to go before Dunwoody City Council for adoption on March 28^th.  However, the City isn’t waiting to implement some of the plan’s major recommendations.  Last week, the City of Dunwoody concluded negotiations with Wells Fargo Bank and will acquire a 16.18 acre parcel to create a new community green space.

The parcel is the site of a failed multi-family development bounded by Chamblee Dunwoody Road, North Shallowford Road, Dunwoody Park Drive and three multi-family residential buildings and was one of the major focal points of the Master Plan effort.

Please see the City of Dunwoody press release and local news video regarding the property acquisition for more information.

Urban Collage is beginning a year-long process to work with the citizens and stakeholders of Gainesville to plan comprehensively for the sustainable growth of the city over the next 20 years. The process will include several hands-on workshops focusing on character area improvements, including a number of new Opportunity Zones.
