Comprehensive Plan for Piedmont Park – 2024

Shaping the Future of Piedmont Park

The Piedmont Park Conservancy, in partnership with the City of Atlanta, has initiated a comprehensive, community-driven planning effort designed to create a new Comprehensive Plan for Piedmont Park.

Here you will find up-to-date information, important dates, and ways to engage in planning Piedmont Park’s future.

Community Engagement Opportunities

Soliciting broad ideas and concepts from the community on new park features, programs, and uses as well as any concerns related to these areas is a critical early step in the Comprehensive Plan process. Starting in August, the Conservancy and our partners will provide multiple opportunities for communities in Metro Atlanta and the surrounding areas to provide their feedback and big ideas for Piedmont Park.

PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT DIGITAL HUB

As we enter the final stages for public input of the Comprehensive Plan, we have updated our Digital Hub to include plans for the Park and additional opportunities for feedback on those plans. 

From now until March 8, the site has been updated with completely new content for review and feedback of the plans we will be working to present to the City of Atlanta in mid-March.

Please use this valuable online resource to contribute to the process.
