HUB404 will create a world-class, community-driven greenspace above GA 400 in Buckhead. Serving the entire metro Atlanta area via its connections to MARTA and PATH400, this project will transform Buckhead’s core and invigorate the local culture and economy.
The first planned multi-modal transit-oriented park of its kind in the U.S., HUB404 will include connections to the growing regional trail network, enhancing accessibility and creating opportunities for residents and visitors to leave their cars behind and walk among a canopy of native trees and landscaping in the center of Buckhead.
HUB404 is a public-private partnership between the Buckhead CID and the HUB404 Conservancy.
