Playable Design Competition Winner is Being Installed At Last!
At long last, our Playable10 International Design Competition winner is arriving at its new home! Installation of the winning design begins Saturday morning (June 23, 2012) in downtown Atlanta's Woodruff Park. The play structure will be unveiled by Atlanta's Mayor Kasim Reed on July 17th. Details to follow, but here is a picture of the site being prepared:
Many thanks to ATOP's partners and donors Landscape Structures, Inc., Bank of America, Central Atlanta Progress and Georgia Tech for their role in making this a reality.
The site of the structure has been changed and will now be located on the corner of Atlanta's two most famous streets: Peachtree Street and Auburn Avenue (home of Martin Luther King, Jr.).
More pictures to come!

There just aren't enough words to thank the folks at Landscape Structures for all they are doing to make creative play happen for the children of Atlanta.
LSI took the new playground at Woodruff Park off of the drawing board and made it come alive. They made the PlayChastain Exploratorium happen for the families and children of north Atlanta.
Landscape Structures has gone above and beyond and their efforts are greatly appreciated.
Congratulations to LSI, ATOP's Play Champions of the Year 2012!

Ethan's grandmother gave him a gift of $25. He gave $20 to ATOP so more Atlanta kids will have great places to play. He kept $5 to get something cool for himself. We think Ethan is pretty cool!
