Marta's Dunwoody Station - a key factor in economic development.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfVG5XAChVk

Join MARTA's Frank Rodriguez on a tour around the Dunwoody Station as he points out the variety of shopping, hotels, and sights surrounding this popular Perimeter area. The Dunwoody Station sits on the Red Line, a quick walk to the numerous office buildings, Perimeter Shopping Mall and plenty of great restaurants and stores.

The Dunwoody Station is part of the Perimeter Center business district because it serves as a transportation hub for multiple shuttles. Employees can ride a free shuttle to/from the Dunwoody rail station during morning and evening rush hours. Most shuttles operate every 15 minutes, and pick up and drop off on the ground floor of Parking Deck 1.

There are 1,048 parking spaces at the Dunwoody Station and parking is free for up to 24-hours. Customers staying 24-hours or longer will be charged for long-term parking at a rate of $5 for each 24-hour period or part thereof.

MARTA's Police Department uses the Dunwoody Station for its North Precinct. From this station, MPD patrols 14 stations, all the bus routes and 12,000 parking spaces from Civic Center station north to Doraville and North Springs.

In the coming months plans will be released as State Farm creates its regional hub around the station with direct access for their employees.

Day of Holocaust Remembrance (Yom HaShoah) on April 27; A Community-Wide Commemoration at the MJCCA’s Besser Holocaust Memorial Garden


On Sunday, April 27, 2014, from 4:00-5:00 pm, the Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta (MJCCA) will invite the entire community to come together and remember the victims of the Holocaust with a special program commemorating Yom HaShoah (or Day of Holocaust Remembrance) at the MJCCA’s Besser Holocaust Memorial Garden, one of the preeminent Holocaust Memorials in the southeast. The program is free of charge, and will take place at the Marcus JCC of Atlanta, (5342 Tilly Mill Road, Dunwoody). Rain or Shine. For information, visit www.atlantajcc.org, or call 678.812.4161.

Yom HaShoah Program Highlights:
Ø  The lighting of the Six Torches in memory of the six million people, who perished in the Holocaust;
Ø  A special musical presentation; 
Ø  Remarks from Jim Barfield, author of the historical novel, Boxcars, which he will discuss, as well as Jim’s hope that teens from all backgrounds may adopt his passion for clarity on the Holocaust in such a way that throughout their lives they will hold a solid commitment to never stand for this history to be repeated. Jim’s presentation will also include an original musical composition written especially for this occasion.
Ø  Greetings from the Israel Consulate to the Southeast, and the German Consulate General to the Southeast.
