Findley, Finally!
Now 10 years later, the Little 5 Points Improvement District has finally broken ground in partnership with the City of Atlanta's Department of Transportation, Lichty Commercial Construction and Russell Landscape. The renovated Findley Plaza will include:
Wide open space for events and activities
Tree wells moved to outer edges of plaza as a buffer to Moreland
New healthy trees and plantings to enhance landscaping
Additional benches and bike racks
Access to electricity for programming
Construction fencing went up earlier this week and the old trees that weren't doing well are being taken down to be replaced with new Nuttall Oak trees. These trees will be along the edge of Moreland and Euclid providing much needed shade.
Individual donors who contributed years ago will finally get to see their donor bricks in place in the plaza. Huge thanks to Park Pride as well as to outgoing Councilmember Amir Farokhi for filling in the funding gaps to make this important project happen in L5P.
