This studio set out to develop a comprehensive understanding of the diverse, rich, and vibrant Gateway 85 Gwinnett Community Improvement District. From that, our purpose was to create a placemaking framework to spotlight the special character of the Jimmy Carter Boulevard Corridor and its neighborhoods. Thus, our mission was to search out unifying elements for the corridor as a whole, as well as reflect and enhance the quality of the diverse places along the way. This study considers the elements necessary for a comprehensive approach. In our search for placemaking strategies, we considered five core content areas of identity and culture, transportation, economic development, education, and housing, so that we could make well-rounded recommendations for steps towards a better Jimmy Carter Boulevard.
