Today marked another step toward District 9 fulfilling its potential through a major revitalization effort in the Bowen Homes community.

Councilmember Dustin Hillis and City Council President Marci Collier Overstreet joined @HousingAtlanta to celebrate the Phase II groundbreaking of Ariel Place at Bowen, a transformative chapter in the redevelopment of Bowen Homes.

Ariel Place at Bowen honors the past, celebrates the people who called Bowen Homes home, and looks toward a future filled with new opportunities for residents and generations to come.

"This will open up incredible opportunities for recreation, transportation and community building, giving residents and visitors alike more ways to explore a beautiful city," Hillis said.

Much thanks to Riverside Neighborhood Association and Frazie's Meat & Market for providing Thanksgiving Dinner to our hardworking @ATLFireRescue firefighters of Stations 28 & 38.
Rylee sure did enjoy driving E38 & the tiller of T38.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

My hope is that these adopted rec's will be priorities for @ATLDOT and @GDOTATL, & we will be able to see many of the short term rec's implemented by the issuance of the 1st annual report, as we look to reduce fatalities & push toward Vision Zero!
