Anyone else done with the abandoned construction site at 14th & Peachtree in Midtown? I put together a site to make it easier to contact officials about it
I've lived in Midtown for years and I'm done watching that fenced-off concrete skeleton sit there. So I put together a simple site that makes it easier to contact city, county, and state officials about it:
You select whether you live, work, or spend time in Midtown and it pre-populates an email to the relevant officials accordingly. You can edit it however you want before sending, so it doesn't have to read like a form letter. No signup, no data collection. Just a mailto link that opens your regular email app.
I'm not affiliated with the city or any developer. Just a frustrated neighbor who got tired of walking past that thing every day for the better part of five years.
With the recent AJC and Urbanize Atlanta coverage it feels like there's real public attention on this now, so figured it was a good time to share.
Note: Thanks to the person that quickly spotted I had a DNS issue when I tried to post this earlier this morning.
Edit: There is a live counter on the site now that shows how many people have clicked the button to email their representatives. As of 5.21 @ 3:24 pm, 113 of you have taken action!
