Peachtree Boulevard Transformation, Atlanta, Georgia

Brookwood has a long history of involvement in the Buckhead Community Improvement District (BCID) Peachtree Boulevard Project.

The Peachtree Boulevard Project, originally known as the Peachtree Corridor Project, is the major enhancement of Peachtree Road in Buckhead. Although this transformation had been discussed for many years, the actual studies and planning began in the 1990s. George Heery, Brookwood’s CEO, contributed preliminary ideas in the form of a study and design concepts for transforming the Peachtree Road corridor into a handsome and more convenient boulevard. This conceptual design, covered the entire length of Peachtree within the greater Buckhead area, from the Peachtree Street overpass at I-85 at Brookwood Station running northward through the old original Buckhead area to the City Limits on the north.

Later a number of property Owners who were associated with the Buckhead Coalition formed the Buckhead Community Improvement District with David Allman of Regent Partners as Chairman of the Board of BCID and with Scotty Green as BCID’s Executive Director.

Brookwood was subsequently retained by the Buckhead Community Improvement District to develop more details of a design for a portion of the Peachtree corridor from just south of the Peachtree-Piedmont intersection to a point north of Phipps Plaza. Completion of Phase One of the Peachtree Boulevard transformation was celebrated in October 2007 with a ribbon cutting by Mayor Shirley Franklin and other community officials.
