Fort McPherson's time is winding down

The East Point Examined blog has the latest information about what is happening down the street at the to-be-closed historic Army base. Check it out here.

EAST POINT, GA - With the closing of Ft. McPherson just around the corner (2011!), Jack Sprott of the McPherson Local Redevelopment Authority gave a presentation of what's planned for the 488-acre base. There have been a round of public meetings with input from those residents in attendance. These meetings resulted in a few beneficial changes for East Point residences. Fifty feet were added to the setback along the northern Colonial Hills (Ward B) border. The proposed residential zoning near the Villages of East Point was scrapped and replaced with green space.

The blog has video of a presentation also.
