OUR CHAPTER
The CNU Atlanta Chapter was founded in 2006 and in 2010 proudly hosted the 18th Annual Congress of the New Urbanism. In the years that followed, the chapter helped shape the regional dialogue on critical issues such as missing middle housing, transit-oriented development, and the revival of town centers. After a period of dormancy, the chapter reactivated in 2022. After years of regaining momentum, the chapter continued its growth with renewed purpose, poised to become a driving force in shaping a more equitable, connected, and inspired urban future for Atlanta and the greater south.​
