This year’s event will feature a fireside chat with special guest Clyde Higgs, President & CEO of Atlanta Beltline, Inc. Topics will include economic development, project history, funding, and lessons learned. The Atlanta Beltline is a 22-mile loop of parks, trails, and transit, connecting 45 neighborhoods and creating a vibrant public space for recreation, commerce, and cultural expression in Atlanta. Learn more about why we have invited Clyde Higgs to speak.

Tom Wald, Executive Director, Red Line Parkway Initiative, will begin the program with an update on the Red Line Parkway, our region’s planned 36-mile linear park and public space connecting Downtown Austin to Cedar Park and Leander.
