Contribute to Design of North Buckhead's Newest Park

The North Buckhead Civic Association's Park Pride group is inviting members of the North Buckhead community to speak out about the future Mountain Way Common, the greenspace around GA-400 overpass at Mountain Way.

Park Pride first initiated its Park Visioning program in 2005 and has produced 28 master plans for various projects, bringing together hundreds of neighbors.

The first of the four scheduled "visioning" public meetings was held on Feb. 12, and community members created a wish list of amenities and features they would like to see for the new park.

This month, North Buckhead community members are invited to participate in a Design Charette visioning meeting where they will break into small groups to create possible park layouts using items from the wish list.

All of the "visioning" meetings for the Mountain Way Park will be held at St. James Churc, 4400 Peachtree Dunwoody Road, on the following Tuesdays at 7 p.m.:

• March 12: Design Charette (Join in on the hands-on design workshop.)
• April 16: Preliminary Design Review (Park Pride will create three design options using the information collected. Come have your say about your favorite elements of each design option.)
• May 7: Final Concept Presentation (View the conceptual master plan and rank your priorities for each amenity.)
