August 2020 was an eventful month: the Confederate monument at the intersection of College Ave and Broad St was taken down. Elsewhere, ACC Mayor's office decided to temporarily close off a section of College Ave and reserve it for pedestrian traffic. Lettus is supporting AADM in harnessing this opportunity to reimagine College Ave.
