Loganville Reveals First Rendering of Proposed Town Green

Mayor would like to see it completed in time for this year's tree lighting.

Attendees at the work session on Monday got their first look at a rendering of what the mayor of hopes will become the basis of the city's first Town Green. 

After first purchasing and then demolishing both the old and the vacant building, the city plans to move ahead and build a town green on the corner of Pecan and Main streets in Loganville. It is, Mayor Ray Nunley said, the focal point the city has always needed. He said the plan was to take a leaf out of Monroe's book and have Friday night concerts and other community events take place at the town green in the future. He had attended the last Friday Night concert in Monroe on Sept. 7 and was very impressed with what he saw.

"I can visualize that same thing happening right here and I think it will be the greatest thing that’s happened for a long time," Nunley said, pointing to the conceptual plan that was revealed by Loganville City Engineer Mike Greenlee of Williams & Associates.
