May 24, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm
Come earn some points for buckheadWALKS! walking challenge and join Livable Buckhead for the third of our Friday community walks. Livable Buckhead is excited to be opening the new segment of PATH400 this fall. Come check out a sneak peak of the new trail segment and learn more about PATH400 and where this new segment from Denise Starling, Executive Director of Livable Buckhead.
Below the Peachtree Park neighborhood, the greenway comes into an area that has a very industrial or utilitarian feel. Bounded on one side by the highway, the other by freight and passenger rail and with MARTA directly overhead. The phase in this area includes bridging under the railroad line and could include enhanced options, as “dressing up” the walls with murals.
One of the most surprising areas of the trail is a detention pond built to serve water running off from the highway which has turned into what feels like a wetland or environmentally sensitive area. The phase in this area includes the trail itself hugging the top of the slope along the rail line.
The walk will begin at Lenox Square’s Fashion Cafe (food court) in front of Five Guys Restaurant at Noon (directions here). Livable Buckhead staff will be on hand to greet you. We will have tours leaving at 12:00, 12:20 and 12:40 for 20 people max for each tour, first come first serve. So, come join us for a lunchtime tour and receive your 25 points!
Meeting Location: Fashion Cafe (Lenox Square Food Court) near Five Guys Burgers
