We Were Wrong.

It is not being sold to us. It's not even being railroaded through. That would require the appearance of a process. An "exciting, transformational, multi-neighborhood focused restoration initiative for Atlanta Memorial Park" has been decreed. If you want a trip back to the previous decade, attend the meeting tomorrow night.

DO-OVER!!!!!

Having created much confusion with the non-announcement of the MPCA's relationship with the Bobby Jones Golf Course and Park Conservancy, we will have what is termed a "Final Neighborhood Meeting to Introduce Preliminary Master Plan for Bobby Jones Conservancy."

7 p.m. on Tuesday November 8th
Bobby Jones Clubhouse
384 Woodward Way

 Maybe the MPCA's position will be clarified.

City of ATL is pulling porta porgies from Memorial Park where Occupy Atlanta is set up #news

Memorial Park was occupied that night -- by squirrels, birds, foxes and other wildlife. The demonstrations were in Woodruff Park at the center of downtown Atlanta. I doubt if Peachtree Creek is home to porgies either.

What's the meaning of this spray-painted green arrow?

Colors in the Park

Here are the new paint jobs in and around Memorial Park. 

These were originally natural green colors. 

This last one is the bridge railing on Northside Drive across from the Bobby Jones Golf Course.

(I think they were trying for a Giverny effect.)

Playground Closed

Yellow police caution tape has been put up around Atlanta Memorial Park playground once again. Keep kids away. There are other playgrounds nearby. The semi-permeable shredded tire surface, subject to polluted creek overflow, serves as a growth medium for all kinds of bacteria.
