International Boulevard Re-opens With A Fresh New Look

ATLANTA (July 22, 2004) After nearly two years of construction, Andrew Young International Boulevard – the entryway to the Georgia World Congress Center from the downtown hotel district – reopens this week with a brand new look. The opening of the road means the Georgia World Congress Center campus is completely construction-free.

The roadway replaces a split-level road that took motorists to an upper and lower level extension of International Boulevard. The new road is a four lane, pedestrian-friendly path to the Georgia World Congress Center and the Georgia Dome. International Boulevard also runs through Centennial Olympic Park near the popular Fountain of Rings.
