That stand alone is right next to some developments that are associated with Glenwood, such as the Evo mixed use residential.

Because some other entity later built something you dislike across the street from Glenwood Park, that makes it a "disconnected district"? Makes no sense.

It's not disconnected because I don't like it. I don't like it because it IS disconnected. Follow my logic...?

It's not part of Glenwood Park. What part of this do you not understand?

Chiming in for clarification. Glenwood Park is the mixed use development to the east of Bill Kennedy Way & North of Glenwood Ave. It is across the street from fuqua project across Bill Kennedy Way to the West. The Fuqua project is in Grant Park.

How do we have a multi-page discussion on the boundaries of Glenwood Park on this thread about the downtown gulch redevelopment?

So please explain why you flat out refuse to admit you are way off base here? Instead of admitting you were wrong, you just keep digging your heels in.

You were wrong about Glenwood Park from the beginning. Multiple people have pointed it out, but you won't let it go. Why?

A lot of people including Google thinks the Fuqua development west of BKW is part of Glenwood Park. TBH I’m not even 100% if Glenwood Park is the name of an actual neighborhood in Atlanta or just the mixed use development itself. Atlanta has 200+ neighborhoods. Exact boundaries throughout the city are not common knowledge. Cabbagetown/Reynoldstown is one that confuses people. Grant Park north of I-20 is another that is common to be mislabeled as something else.

This is the only part of that area that is really Glenwood Park, the rest is just greedy developers like Fuqua trying to cash in on the name while building developments completely antithetical to the ideas of the original Glenwood Park development

Glenwood Park is not one of the 243 officially recognized Atlanta neighborhoods, so anything outside of the development itself is not part of Glenwood Park.

Thanks for clarifying this. Which brings me back to the whole "mini-city" within a city gripe....

Let's turn our attention to Fuqua instead of each other. I'm glad I haven't heard his name associated with any projects recently.

Ok, well, educate me then. What exactly is Glenwood connected to?

I've got just the news to distract from the pointless neighborhood boundary discussion.

Perkins + Will is out as the Architect/Master Planner of Centennial Yards. CIM has commissioned Pritzker Prize winning firm of Foster and Partners to redo the design. This is huge and reaffirms CIM's long term commitment to this project. As has been hinted on other channels, expect to see the revamped plan before the end of the year.

Can't divulge my source but remember you heard it here first.

Oh man- this is hard not to get excited for. Could Atlanta see a proposal with compelling architecture? My thought is this could be that opportunity.
