As showcased in the 2035 SouthPark Forward Vision Plan, access to public space and trails ranks among the top amenities both residents and business owners desire. As a direct response to this, SouthPark Community Partners recently unveiled the framework for a $21MM public-private partnership to transform Symphony Park into a premier urban park.
Join us for a fireside chat with Nate Storring, Co-Executive Director of Project for Public Spaces, and Adam Rhew, President & CEO of SouthPark Community Partners, to dive deeper on why public space is vital to a thriving community.
Project for Public Spaces is renowned for their innovative placemaking strategies that revitalize communities by transforming public spaces into vibrant hubs. Since 1975, they've helped over 3,500 communities across 50 countries and all 50 U.S. states imagine their futures and meet their needs through public space.
Venue & Parking: We will be meeting under the Symphony Park bandshell. Parking is free and available in the SouthPark Mall parking lot.
