The Evermore CID was awarded a $40,000 grant by the Atlanta Regional Commission yesterday in order to study the viability of transforming the Olympic tennis venue into a multipurpose facility. The desire is for the facility to act as a catalyst for revitalization and economic growth for the Park Place area.

David Stedman, the Evermore Economic Development Director stated that there is a developer interested in a project.

“In this economy, we need to show that we are making an effort to improve the market dynamics of the area in a fundamental way,” he said. “When businesses and developers hear about the vision we have for the area, people get excited.”
