After five years of planning and construction, Avondale Estates permanently removed fencing last month around its Town Green project, allowing access to open greenspace, a performance area, a playground, dog park, and other components along the DeKalb County city’s main traffic corridor.
Located just east of Avondale Estates’ recognizable, Tudor-style downtown, the roughly two-acre Town Green replaced parking lots, idle land, and low-rise buildings. It’s the first phase of what city leaders envision as a new mixed-use hub that links downtown to the city’s burgeoning brewery district.
