Thank you for taking interest and providing direction for an area well travelled with little to offer.
Interesting idea.
The public transportation should be revisited for more convenience to those that are frequent riders, the connection system is an unbearable nuisance and expensive especially when unemployment is playing a part in the lack of. The drivers should be more customer friendly and knowledgable whereas the city is growing with great diversity and people are learning to get from here to there and drivers fail to have knowledge on how to assist in questions of destination. The time frame does not line up with pick up and drop off and often times creating lateness to jobs, schools and appointments. The fact that there is no service on Sundays creates a stigma leading to depression because there is a sense of being trapped and confined without the ability to travel eg., to place of worship.
It would be nice to have a safe community place where mom’s could let their children play possibly a park and walking trail conducive for strollers. It would be nice to have cafe for familys and students. Activities for night would include festivals that include art, arts and crafts, and wholesome music that could get everyone moving. Something where the community could have a great movie night on a “green”. This is the feel that would put this community on the next step for a thriving city.
I live directly adjacent to the area in a small neighborhood of houses and I think a visible from Cobb Pky pocket park in the study area with parking with nearby walkable distance small social type businesses would be nice. The area is basically the gateway to the city from the south on the largest city highway, so some sort of significant area delineation should be desired. Perhaps purchase of larger tract that is now languishing could be public-private partnership developed into something. Maybe even a food truck park area like they have in Atlanta could be a big hit to all the local workers and students and help the overall area thrive and become more vibrant. There is definitely a need for something to compete with Kennesaw State’s many developments. This area will not thrive without some sort of significant public investment. You would think it should not be that hard of sell since it is such a visible city gateway.
