‘It’s Complicated’ podcast: The ‘game changing’ moment for the Atlanta Beltline
When Atlanta BeltLine Inc. set out to build a 22-mile loop around intown communities, it didn’t count on the Great Recession or a global pandemic.
Now, with nine years until the project’s completion deadline, organizers are getting “very aggressive” in finding revenue to make up for lost time and to finish building the multi-use trail that is one of the nation’s largest urban redevelopment programs.

What is the Beltline SSD???
An SSD (Special Service District) is a tax district where commercial and multi-family property owners in the Atlanta BeltLine Planning Area pay slightly more in property taxes to fund the Atlanta BeltLine trail completion. Single family homeowners are not part of the district. 
As this affects more than half of Grant Park, we urge you to learn and understand more.
GPNA Sunbursts
Get your sunburst... or one for a new neighbor! This symbol of the neighborhood has been quite popular through the years as evidenced by the number of them that you see hanging from Grant Park homes and businesses. Sunbursts are pre-painted and homeowners are encouraged to add their house numbers.

About the Grant Park Neighborhood Association (GPNA)
In the first days of the revitalization of the Grant Park neighborhood, when only a handful of people envisioned the potential of this urban neighborhood, the Association to Revive Grant Park (ARGP) was formed. ARGP, begun in 1973, was the largest of three civic organizations in the neighborhood. The association’s purpose was to help preserve and promote Grant Park as a viable community. In 1975, ARGP was incorporated as a non-profit organization. In the late 1980's the name was changed to the Grant Park Neighborhood Association (GPNA).
