Mayor Kasim Reed recently announced a $1 billion stadium deal to replace the Georgia Dome, which could include funds to revamp the Northside Drive corridor. Michael Dobbins, a professor at Georgia Tech's School of City and Regional Planning, has called the corridor “a wasted, disinvested, dysfunctional piece of urban infrastructure,” and believes the investment could turn Northside Drive into “a grand transit boulevard”.
