The Georgia World Congress Center is looking into adding some fancy new additions to Centennial Olympic Park, in hopes of sustaining long-term interest from both local residents and visitors alike.

To do so, they recently asked the park's original designers to come up with a "wish list" of various projects. The plan contains proposed ideas that range from overdue improvements like additional on-street parking to a number of possible new attractions.

While there's no timetable or funding lined up just yet, assistant park manager Joe Skopitz hopes that the new features will encourage visitors to spend more time at Centennial Olympic Park.
