Gather 'round all ye greenspace enthusiasts and other friendly souls: after many months of construction, the expansion of Historic Fourth Ward Park along the Atlanta Beltline in Old Fourth Ward is complete, Beltline officials say. Though only a few acres, the expansion — which offers a nice front door to the showpiece retention pond — serves a more important purpose by connecting the CL award-winning park to North Avenue. The Beltline's new blog has posted a link to a photo gallery of the expansion.
