As part of an effort to engage with citizens around the city, the Atlanta City Studio, whose focus is on shaping the future of city neighborhoods, is relocating to Cascade Heights in April, the city of Atlanta announced.
The studio opened last May at Ponce City Market. It’s next site is 2311 Cascade Rd. in southwest Atlanta. City planners, architects and transportation professionals staff the studio, which has rotating exhibits of Atlanta neighborhoods and urban design concepts, hosts lectures and other events including public input on the Atlanta City Design Project.
In a statement, Atlanta mayor Kasim Reed said relocating the studio “allows residents in another quadrant to work directly with our city planners to make Atlanta the best possible place to live, work and play.”
Commissioner Tim Keane of Atlanta’s department of planning and community development said, “The City of Atlanta understands that community engagement and involvement is an integral part of shaping the future of Atlanta, and the Atlanta City Studio will continue to move around the city to ensure that every community can help guide us.”
