About two weeks ago, the block of College Avenue between Clayton St. and Broad St. was blocked off to create a pedestrian mall & dining area. The closure is th...e launch of a 6-month pilot project and will remain permanent if the project goes well. We would love to hear your feedback about this!! Do you like the idea of a dining/pedestrian space in this location? Do you find the cement planters to be unsightly? Could this change cause a disruption in traffic flow/confusion for drivers? Any questions or comments would be much appreciated! We want people who come downtown (whether they’re local or visiting) to have the best experience possible! https://www.onlineathens.com//another-outdoor-dining-optio
