About This Resource
The Atlanta BeltLine is an ambitious urban redevelopment project converting historic railroad corridors into parks, trails, and transit. The project includes numerous modern staircases providing access from neighborhoods to the trail system and connecting areas at different elevations. These stairs represent contemporary thinking about pedestrian connectivity and trail access. Notable staircase designs incorporate art elements and landscape features. The BeltLine stairs demonstrate how modern cities are investing in pedestrian infrastructure and creating new public stairways as part of urban renewal projects.
