Highlights from November 15th, 2023 Stitch Community Outreach Workshop

Explore “The Stitch” – a 14-acre park project in downtown Atlanta that will cap the Downtown Connector (I-75/85), which bisects the city. The initiative aims to improve transportation and connectivity while fostering equitable redevelopment in the city’s North downtown. In this recap of a Community Outreach Workshop by the MCP Foundation, Project Director Claudia Bato and others highlight how the initiative seeks to expand access to green space and inject new residences, including affordable housing, into the city. “The Stitch” is envisioned as a transformative green space inspiring social, economic, and ecological change, aiming to bring joy to all who use it.
