Batson-Cook Development Company, jointly with Georgia Development Partners, was selected in May 2007 by The City of Morrow and the Georgia Department of Transportation to construct Morrow Station Town Center on behalf of the City. The design intent was to create a new town center utilizing funding from the Atlanta Regional Commission's LCI (Livable Centers Initiative) program. Morrow's new town square on State Route 54 next to the entrance to Clayton State University, will be the catalyst and central outdoor activity area for new office, residential and commercial development. The square will be developed and integrated with a planned inter-modal facility that includes passenger rail station and bus drop-off, along with an amphitheater space to hold informal concerts and public events. The adjacent National Archives, (constructed by Batson-Cook) office, retail, and housing provide a new community center to live, work, and play. |
