WHERE:WESTSIDE/BANKHEAD PROJECT NAME: WESTSIDE RESERVOIR PARK | TYPE: PUBLIC SPACE | START DATE: OCTOBER 2018 | STATUS: IN PLANNING | PHASE: 2 OF 10
WESTSIDE RESERVOIR PARK IS INTENDED TO BECOME NO LESS THAN ONE OF AMERICA’S GREAT PARKS! IT WILL BE A SOURCE OF SHARED CIVIC PRIDE THAT CUTS ACROSS GENERATIONAL, SOCIOECONOMIC, AND ETHNIC BOUNDARIES. IT WILL BECOME AN ICON THAT IS BELOVED AND HAVE A PERSONALITY ALL ITS OWN.
THIS PARK WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE OVERALL IDENTITY OF ATLANTA AS A LIVABLE CITY, WITH AN IMPRESSIVE PUBLIC REALM OF URBAN AND NATURAL CHARACTER. DESIGN INTERVENTIONS EVOLVE FROM THE SITE AND PROGRAM, SO THE CHARACTER OF THE PARK WILL BE UNIQUE TO ATLANTA AND, LIKE ATLANTA, BOTH TIMELESS
AND STATE OF THE ART.
CONDENSED INTO THE AREA OF THE PARK ARE VARIOUS REMARKABLE AND DIVERSE MAN-MADE AND NATURAL LANDSCAPES, BOTH URBAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL, PROVIDING AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE CULTURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY OF THE AREA. NOWHERE ELSE DOES HISTORY, NATURE, AND IMAGINATION COME TOGETHER AS THEY DO AT WESTSIDE RESERVOIR PARK.
