Man, can we please, PLEASE, leave out the rediculously biased, political drivel for a non-political sporting event and sport that is Uniting Atlanta together. You gave No mention of all the major changes in the walkability of the downtown Centenial Park & Centenial Yards area. No mention of the literally 10's of thousands of hotel rooms just built or being built with in walking distance of the stadium. No mention of the world busiest, most efficent airport connection to downtown. No mention of all the restaurants, bars, museums and other amenties with in walking distance?? The ATL will probubly be the most walkable host city of ALL host cities! All you can complained about is the tired and very dated Northside Drive, segregating argument??? Seriously?! Come on! There's been great improvements since the Benz has bern built & Olympics here, and even good progress in Vine City with Arthur Blanks Westside funding, along with others. I'm writing this temporarily parked by the beautiful Rodney Cook Park and the beautifully restored houses happening around its perimiter. Catleberryhill is already good and getting better. How about opening your eyes and mind in the other direction! You made no mention of the sports and entertaiment area in Centenial Yards to be mostly completed by 2026. Look at Midtowns success. Yes, we need tanbible efforts made in South DTWN and UNDERGROUND- some incetivising these areas, especially housing. How about some funding to get the streetcar up to Ponce City market by 2026!! It should not take that long to build the streetcar there! We should be able to have the streetcar, on the Beltline, to Piedmont park by then! This would show the world our beltline neighborhood connectivity and highlight our growing walkability as a city. Again Atlanta has a lot of work needing to be done, especially with Marta's expansion but we probubly AlREADY are the most walkable of the American host cities were the stadium is located!! Certainly better than Dallas, Miami or the Meadowlands. Rise Up & Be United in your attitude and thinking, leave the politics out of it!!!
