Atlanta BeltLine – Atlanta
Not many states or cities can claim that one of their best urban walking and biking trails started as a Master’s degree project.
Atlanta BeltLine is the product of a 1999 Master’s thesis idea by Ryal Gravel of Georgia Tech. He presented the idea of turning the rail corridors into a ring of parks and trails.
Thankfully, it was a successful project that we all can take advantage of today! If you are here for the first time, start with the Eastside Trail of the Atlanta BeltLine.
