Where Do I Park My Reaper?
According to a recent AJC piece, among the items in Governor Perdont’s wish list is to take the current DOT building, tear it down a replace it with a parking deck.
You reap what you sow. Will the Governor have the political will to make this happen? Probably not, but the very idea is hilarious. Better yet, tear down the current parking decks for ‘road improvements’ first, & let the DOT keep it’s building.
With no parking, they’ll all be forced to take MARTA to work…. or the Lovejoy line.

I like the idea of a car free capitol area, but last time I checked 75% of downtown Atlanta was parking decks. How about turning Underground Atlanta into an underground parking facility? How about renovating the Five Points MARTA station as a pedestrian mall and chasing away the ratty vendors (get some NYC-style news stand booths for them)
