Beginning Friday, Oct. 31, Gilmer Street will be closed from Peachtree Center Avenue to Courtland Street as part of the Sparks Hall demolition and Campus Greenway expansion project.
About This Project
With the planned closure of Gilmer Street on Hurt Park’s south side and the removal of Sparks Hall, Georgia State’s existing Campus Greenway will integrate with the park space to create the Panther Quad, a defining feature of what will be known as the Central Academic Quad. The reimagined outdoor space making up the Panther Quad will include an elevated plaza, enhanced walkways and a vegetated buffer along Courtland Street. This project is anticipated to be completed in two phases as the Arts & Humanities building is renovated.
