Is Roswell ready to go vertical?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
UPDATE, 4/7/07: Roswell Mayor Jere Wood is proposing a tax district to pay for improvements to Holcomb Bridge Road. See his letter in a related blog post.
Many suburban communities —- from Gwinnett to Cobb to Cherokee —- have considered live, work and play centers like Atlantic Station in Midtown. Charlie Brown, Atlantic Station’s developer, is planning a $2 billion mini-city that will be at Ga. 400 between Holcomb Bridge Road and the Chattahoochee River in Roswell. If approved by local, regional and state authorities, the Roswell East project could set the tone for future suburban development.
AJC graphic artist Jemal Brinson and staff writers Todd Duncan and Paul Kaplan took a detailed look at what Charlie Brown has in mind. Take a look at the images and the description, and then we’d like to hear from you. What do think about the concept of high-rise in the Roswell area, and what is your reaction to the Roswell East concept?
If you could talk to the city or the developer, what questions would you ask? We’ll take those questions and see if we can get some answers.
