If you've been by Little 5 Points this week, you've seen the changes in Findley Plaza at the corner of Euclid and Moreland Avenue. This renovation project is a decade in the making beginning with the initial formation of Friends of Little 5 Points Parks in 2015.

Made up of representatives chosen by Little 5 Points Business Association, Candler Park Neighborhood Organization, and Inman Park Neighborhood Association, the Friends group was formed to focus on improving Findley Plaza and other common areas around Little 5 Points.

As part of our work on an Arts & Culture Plan with the Atlanta Regional Commission, we have been asking what makes our Little 5 Points community special and what you love and want to preserve. Recently we worked on The Big 5 sign at Findley Plaza as part of Little 5 Fest to allow community members to share their love for the neighborhood!

We heard so many good things about the unique connections people have to Little 5 Points and why it's such a special place to many of us. We also learned that leaving a large structure unattended can attract behavior that is far from ideal in Little 5.

One of the top concerns from business owners, customers, and residents in the Little 5 Points and surrouding communities is parking. While the commercial district has a number of parking lots and the public streets offer both metered and free parking within a 1/2 mile range, visitors can sometimes be confused because of the multiple approaches to parking in the area. Some lots charge, others don't. Some streets are permit only, others aren't.

Sean Germain is pulled back to those places of his youth, to the plazas of Little Five Points, to the shops, the sidewalks, the roll and the rumble of the neighborhood’s energy. 

See him most mornings now out in Gregory Davis Plaza, tidying up from the turnabout on Seminole to the sidewalk fronting Moreland. He looks after the space and cares for it as he always has, because Little Five is a place, he insists, that changed his life.

This tragedy has spurred renewed conversations about how to help those who are unhoused in Atlanta as the problem continues to grow in our communities. As many of you know, the L5P Alliance has worked with multiple strategies to help with this issue in our district.
