Georgia Downtown Renaissance (GDR) Partnership
The Georgia Downtown Renaissance Partnership was founded in 2013 as a community-driven collaborative planning and design partnership. The partnership brings together public institutions, nongovernmental organizations, and private foundations to assist local governments with downtown revitalization and other planning challenges. Partners including the University of Georgia’s Carl Vinson Institute of Government, the Georgia Municipal Association, and the Georgia Cities Foundation bring diverse resources to the table to support community-driven planning. Since 2013, the Georgia Downtown Renaissance Partnership has brought a collaborative planning approach to over 60 cities across Georgia and neighboring states.
