Abstract
Metropolitan Parkway is a major thoroughfare that runs just south of Downtown Atlanta to Hapeville, Ga ending at the city limits. The street runs through many blighted and improvised neighborhoods in the city. In recent years, there has been a push for urban renewal along with the early onslaught of new residents causing some gentrification within the residential neighborhoods, mainly in Adair Park and Capitol View where the Atlanta Beltline is driving up property values. The implications of redevelopment have highlighted the need for the area to become a more livable and sustainable community. In this study, a framework will be provided to a viable community development plan focusing on previous studies, a complete street redesign and revised frontage requirements along Metropolitan Parkway beginning at the Dill Avenue intersection continuing south to the Cleveland Avenue.
