  1. Peachtree Corners has a town center already. It’s right across Peachtree Parkway, connected by the oedestrian bridge to The Forum. It has a highly successful Town Green. NAP’s statement that The Forum will be Town Center demonstrates their lack of regard for the City. The competition will kill both places! The focus on “civic” public spaces on their part is pure mercantilistic competition, and not beneficial to Peachtree Corners.
