Meghan Injaychock
Project Manager - Atlanta BeltLine, Inc.

Meghan Injaychock joined Atlanta BeltLine, Inc. in 2012 after completion of a yearlong fellowship with ABI’s Design Team. Injaychock holds a bachelor’s degree in Landscape Architecture and a master’s degree in Environmental Planning and Design from the University of Georgia.  Her master’s thesis focused on the creation of the BeltLine’s first Urban Farm located in Adair Park. Most of Injaychock’s responsibilities are with the construction and Design of trails and parks within the BeltLine corridor.

Injaychock’s ABI project management portfolio runs the gamut of the design for the splashpads at Perkerson Park and Boulevard  Crossing Park (future Phase II) to the construction of Northeast Trail- Segment 2 (also known as Hairpin), Westside BeltLine Connector Segments 1 and 2, and Bill Kennedy Way interim safety improvements.

Now practically an expert at managing BeltLine trail construction in the public right-of-way, she is finishing up construction on what will be her third trail of this kind. The Westside Trail-Segment 3 is a segment of mainline BeltLine trail that will cut into Marietta Boulevard and connect the recently completed Westside BeltLine Connector spur trail, built in partnership with the PATH Foundation, to the future Westside Trail – Segment 4, and eventually connect to the Silver Comet, the Westside Park, and the future Northwest Trail.
