AJCC turns down proposal
to sell Peachtree Rd. site
by Vida Goldgar
A $22 million contract offered
for purchase of the 11-acre Peach
tree Road site of the Atlanta Jew
ish Community Center was termed
“unacceptable” by officials of the
AJCC.
Jack Freedman, AJCC Presi
dent, told The Southern Israelite
Tuesday, “It is not an acceptable
contract.” He did not indicate
whether it was the price or other
factors which were at issue.
This week’s Business Monday
section of the Atlanta Journal and
Atlanta Constitution reported $22
million had been offered by an
unidentified purchaser for a high-
rise residential complex. The re
port also said the AJCC board
would vote on the offer this week.
Barrie Segall, AJCC executive
director, said that report was
erroneous. Although final deci
sions on Center action would rest
with the board, any such offer
would have to first have the
recommendation of the AJCC’s
lawyers and the executive commit
tee, with input from community
planning agencies.
Segall said that the Center has
long been aware that changing
community needs would eventu
ally bring about a change in
requirements for the Center’s mid
town location. However, he added,
“We are well aware of the strong
sentiment to remain in the area and
have no plans to abandon our
urban presence.”
What has been discussed in
long-range planning is that many
activities which have been focused
at the Peachtree location would be
more realistically relocated to an
expanded Zaban Center and the
presently planned East Cobb
branch. Shifting populations, con
firmed by last year’s demographic
study of the Jewish community,
indicate specifically that most
users of such facilities as the ball
fields, tennis courts and gymnasi
ums live to the north of the city.
Segall foresees that an urban
building, perhaps half the size of
the present Peachtree building-
on much smaller grounds—would
better serve the senior adult and
adult services programs, fitness
centers and provide ample meeting
rooms and auditorium.
An eventual sale of the valuable
Peachtree Road land would go a
long way toward funding an
appropriate, convenient Center in
the general area of the present
midtown facility, adding 60-to
80,000 square feet at Zaban and
getting the Cobb County branch
off the ground.
Jewish culture forums set
“Jewish Renewal in the Post-
Modern World” will be the topic of
a five-part public symposium to be
held in Atlanta in May and June.
The program, sponsored by the
Atlanta Jewish Federation, is part
of a national celebration of the
25th anniversary of the National
Foundation for Jewish Culture.
Atlanta is one of five cities chosen
to host regional symposia on top
ics of major importance to the
understanding of the history,
development and potential direc
tions of Jewish culture in America.
All five symposia will address the
central theme of “Creativity and
Continuity: Jewish Culture in
America.”
The program will bring a series
of well-known and respected
speakers to Atlanta, according to
Edward Elson, chairman of the
Atlanta Symposium. The topics
and speakers for the series are
being provided by the National
Foundation of Jewish Culture.
