Little 5 Points renovations underway after years of planning

A long-anticipated project in Atlanta’s Little Five Points neighborhood is officially moving forward, according to Little 5 Points Alliance

What we know:

After ten years of planning and fundraising, the community’s Improvement District has broken ground on major renovations to Findley Plaza.

The upgrades will include wider open spaces for public events, enhanced landscaping, and more benches and bike racks for visitors. As part of the revitalization, aging trees in the plaza will be replaced with healthier ones.

This project complements ongoing improvements near the intersection of Moreland and Euclid avenues, where work is already underway to increase safety and walkability. 

Big picture view:

That area gained increased attention following the tragic death of a 19-year-old driver who was struck and killed during a police chase involving a suspect earlier this year.
