About This Short
The city just released a redevelopment proposal for the historic Pink Store site at 1029 McDaniel Street — and for once, they're keeping the past intact while planning a better future. This small but powerful project includes affordable housing for working families, a return of local retail, and a space made for the community — not developers.
In this video, I’ll walk you through what’s planned, why it matters, and how this could become a model for how Atlanta grows without leaving its people behind. As someone who lives and works right here in the city, I believe this kind of intentional development is exactly what we need more of.
