The Atlanta Regional Commission and experts in the concept of "tactical urbanism" transformed two blocks of Auburn Avenue in the Old Fourth Ward of Atlanta into a place that allowed young and old to live and age in place. The Sweet Auburn Living Beyond Expectations transformation was the culmination of a multi-year project by the ARC to demonstrate what it takes to build a community that appeals to older adults & millennials.
