Former Executive Director of the Atlanta Regional Commission Doug Hooker was recently named CEO of the Midtown Connector Park (MCP), a planned 17-acre greenspace that, when finished, will run from North Avenue to 5th Street in a canopy-like design. The park will be a deck park, a park in the sky, a gathering place for Atlantans looking for a getaway from city life without actually leaving the city. Piedmont Park for a new age.
