The Stitch, a transformational civic infrastructure design, will cap I-75/ 85 to reconnect downtown and midtown with new community recreational, wellness, and entertainment areas. The design seeks to improve conditions caused by the interstate highway, which displaced tens of thousands of residents from the historically Black Fourth Ward.
The Stitch invites Legacy residents and their descendants to a listening session to
- Learn more about the goals of The Stitch
- Co-create inclusive public memory offerings representing the demolished neighborhoods
- Share your feedback about what steps can bring repair to the displaced community
- Take part in a community healing practice
If you are taking MARTA or need childcare, please inform us on the reservation form.
