People Archive | Colony Square

In 2018, Colony Square reached its 50th anniversary. To celebrate, we had an idea to introduce a new series: ’People of Colony Square’—focused on people who have lived, worked and played at The Square and share their stories, their favorite memories of Midtown, what it was like back then and what they look forward to seeing as we transform the South’s first mixed-use community into Midtown Atlanta’s Living Room.
