The Atlanta BeltLine is a Smart, Ambitious 6,000 Acre Public Transportation Network by Perkins + Will

In one of the most progressive and innovative urban developments that any US city has ever undertaken, <a href="http://beltline.org/">Atlanta’s BeltLine</a> is a transit network that encircles the city. The BeltLine includes a 22-mile light-rail transit loop, multi-use paths, and almost 1000 acres of parks. This project is over <a href="http://beltline.org/explore/maps/overview-maps/">6000 acres</a> in size and it has initiated an urban revitalization throughout Atlanta that will include new jobs, affordable housing, improved transportation, new cultural facilities and the longest arboretum in the world.
