Aspiring

to the Beloved Community

The Atlanta City Design @ATLcitystudio #designATL

SLIDE 30

“The aftermath of nonviolence is reconciliation and the creation of the beloved community.”

  • Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., 1957

Identity.

SLIDE 31

Metropolitan Atlanta is expected to grow by nearly 50% over the next couple of decades: from 5.5 million today to over 8 million. Urgency.

slide-32
SLIDE 32

The region currently has 5.5 million people. The ARC projects the region will grow by 2.5 million people for a total metro Atlanta population of 8 million by 2040.

A larger region.

slide-33
SLIDE 33

If we assume the region will grow to 8 million people and 15% of those people want to live in the City of Atlanta, then the population of the City will grow to 1.2 million.

A larger city.

1.3 million 465,000
