love our places: parklets

To support public health guidelines for local food and beverage establishments while also creating vibrant streets, the City of Atlanta’s Love Our Places held a parklet round in 2021. The program provided resources for operators to re-purpose on-street parking spaces into outdoor seating areas in accordance with the City’s recently updated Outdoor Dining legislation and permit process. Parklets designed to last more than a couple of months typically cost anywhere from $20,000 to $50,000 or more. Through this program, establishments received cost-efficient parklets at no cost to them.
