Description

“Understanding Our History Will Help Us Better Understand Our Future” Share a dialogue about the rebuilding of a Black quintessential neighborhood around the adaptive reuse of historic St. Mark, constructed in 1927 from Stone Mountain granite. The church, the two congregations once housed there, and its location are significant to the history of the development of English Avenue and surrounding area. Working in the Brawley/Alexander redevelopment plan, The Beloved Community, Inc is demonstrating a new and more effective redevelopment model, which has been named and branded the beloved community. This model calls for an economic development plan around which housing, healthy sustainable food sources and essential goods and services must be centered in a Westside economic ecosystem. On-street parking available. MARTA bus #50 stops in front of the site. Limited to 10 guests. Masks required. Mission Statement: The Beloved Community, Inc. is a not for profit corporation which builds healthy sustainable communities.
