Why are the Ford Factory lofts so cheap? Just because of the whole Murder Kroger thing? Or are they super shitty?
I have a friend that lives there and I went to his place once. Doesn't seem shitty, but with PCM next door it's obviously not as nice. I'd move there though.
Yeah but they're literally 1/2 what you're paying for PCM, and its right across the Beltline. Something about it just seems off to me.
Got married at Sweetwater Creek State Park over the weekend. Took my wife and her friend to PCM yesterday and was trying to get up to the putt-putt course as I thought it had opened. No one knew how so I'm guessing it's still not open to the public?
find anything? I know there are a couple on Midway that are on the market - also a place over on Chevelle has the fiancee antsy
Several, we're looking at 4th Q so the inventory will change. Wanted her to get a better feel for the neighborhoods and it looks like we'll head to Midway/Avondale/Edgewood rather than Adair Park.
Starting a puppy search now, and then moving in June. Worried about the whole getting a dog that is too "big" or too "aggressive" for the landlord/office. That's my struggle now.
Gov. Nathan Deal on Tuesday signed a measure into law that allows the city of Atlanta to pursue a $2.5 billion expansion of MARTA that’s likely to include a light rail system along the Beltline. A previous version of the legislation, Senate Bill 369, was halted in its tracks earlier this year after a bruising battle that divided urban and suburban lawmakers. But it won an improbable victory on the last day of the legislative session after a late compromise was struck. The proposal that emerged allows the city of Atlanta to set a referendum for a half-percent sales tax increase aimed at transit initiatives. MARTA Board Chairman Robbie Ashe has said the “lion’s share” would likely fund transit on the Beltline. To placate reluctant Republicans, it exempted DeKalb County and allows Fulton County lawmakers to pursue a 0.25 percent sales tax for transit in the future. For now, it allows Fulton commissioners to press ahead with plans for a five-year 0.75 percent sales tax referendum this November to pay for road improvements. “It was a win-win for Fulton County,” said House Speaker Pro Tem Jan Jones, a Milton Republican. “In north and south Fulton, people want to be able to get to work primarily on congested roads in their cars. They may also want transit opportunities, but their first priority is clogged roads.” The earlier version included both Fulton and DeKalb and would have raised as much as $8 billion to expand MARTA in three directions. Still, transit advocates hailed Tuesday’s bill signing as a much-needed victory – and another step toward a more ambitious overhaul. “The groundwork has been set for a comprehensive transit bill so we can come back in 2017,” said state Rep. Calvin Smyre, D-Columbus, who was on hand at Deal’s bill signing ceremony. Residents of Atlanta already pay a 1 percent MARTA sales tax. The increase would bump the sales tax rate in the city to 8.5 percent from 8 percent. Projected revenue from the tax, which would last through 2057, would be about $2.5 billion. First, though, the City Council would have to approve a proposed project list and schedule a referendum for November 2016 or 2017. Then, a majority of voters would have to endorse the plan. Smyre said he hopes it’s just the start of a larger legislative debate on transit. “The state now has a huge stake in the process and MARTA and transit are being talked about in a comprehensive manner,” he said. “For many years, we fought for transit and we were unsuccessful.” He added: “I’ve been here long enough to know that sometimes baby steps are huge steps.”
http://www.atlantaboxerrescue.org/index.html My box Chopper came from ABR and I'm going to get another one from them within the next few months. Stuhly has American bulldogs and they're great too. Your leasing office will likely not allow over 50lbs or aggressive breeds like pits, but its incredibly subjective. Read your lease first.
Most pitbulls that are even 1% something else end up being called a lab mix by the humane society from what I've seen
High Cotton just found his Saturday plans A series of events over the next few weekends at The Shops Buckhead Atlanta includes an outdoor block party, a farmer's market, and — most interestingly perhaps — something called "Ferraris and Cappuccinos." The broad range of activities marks the latest effort to draw visitors to OliverMcMillan's swanky district, which debuted a year and 1/2 ago on the ashes of Buckhead's raucous party district. Touted as a "very Italian Saturday," the gathering is scheduled for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. beginning April 30 (and every third Saturday of the month through September), offering visitors a chance to view exclusive, vintage, and new Ferraris on display and chat with the undoubtedly prosperous owners of these automobiles. Keeping with that Italian theme, there will be cappuccinos. The cars will be parked on Bolling Way between Corso Coffee and Hermès. So the well-to-do can come out and window shop for their next potential automobile, while the rest of us ... well, we can see how the other half lives, and maybe sneak a cappuccino before the cover is blown. The next day (Sunday), the development will host The Market, featuring fresh produce, flowers, baked goods, handmade pasta, cold-pressed juice and all sorts of other good stuff. It continues every Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., again on Boling Way between Corso Coffee and Hermès. The following Friday (May 6), The Shops Buckhead Atlanta will host its Signature First Friday — an outdoor block party from 6 to 9 p.m. in Center Plaza, featuring live music, entertainment, drink specials, "and much more." Expect lots of bands and SweetWater on tap.

MONEY magazine raised eyebrows last year by anointing Atlanta the country's second-best cityfor millennials (just behind rival Austin), based on the prevalence of millennials in the ATL (26 percent of the population) and a relatively low cost of living, among other factors. A recent piece by GlobeSt.com gets more specific, suggesting that downtown Atlanta is reallythe place for millennials to be now and in the future. Although some observers — including the Atlanta Hawks new owner — believe the city's core still has a long way to go. For perspective, the website tapped Cushman & Wakefield’s Dean McNaughton, who recently helped lure millennial-magnet restaurants Tin Lizzy's, Panbury's, and Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken to The Mall at Peachtree Center. McNaughton says a resurgence in neighborhoods surrounding downtown is now having a spillover effect, as evidenced by downtown apartment projects undertaken by heavyweights such as Post Properties and Paces Properties, who revamped and revitalized a vacant office building on Piedmont Avenue. More and more companies that covet millennials (and who doesn't?) are looking toward office options such as Peachtree Center. Why? McNaughton says beyond the advent of new dining options, downtown offers sidewalks, bike lanes, streetcar service, after-work entertainment options such as Hawks games, and perhaps most importantly, five MARTA stations, including the transit system's largest. "Transit is among the top priorities for companies," McNaughton told the website. "They want to attract the best quality employees, including millennials, and in order to do this they need to be in an environment where there are transportation options and the ability to commute without driving." Otherwise, you're left with a place like Fayette County, which is hemorrhaging millennials faster than any other area in the country — and where the phrase "millennial drain" is a real thing.
more people trying to block development, don't know much about the area so I don't know how valid either sides concerns are. http://clatl.com/freshloaf/archives...s-on-rezoning-for-home-park-mixed-use-project

Well the main concerns are traffic and parking which both will worsen if this development happens. A lot of people are also probably worried about affordable rents going away and home owners probably concerned about being pushed out of their neighborhood. Is that worth not doing it? I really don't know. I see benefit in keeping Home Park residential and I see benefit in blowing it up. A lot of home owners are going to make a lot of money at some point selling their house in that neighborhood.
Headed to your fine city this afternoon to catch a show at The Tabernacle tonight. I have never had the occasion to see a show there and I am quite excited.
Yeah it's going to be great. I've managed to see shows at the other venerable musical establishments over the years but have somehow missed Tabernacle. Even better is we are all going to bar hop around Buckhead, for sure hit up the Ivy, to get shitcanned before and after. Perhaps I will run into some of you all there. Spoiler
if someone randomly punches you in the face, that's Clown Baby. I'll be the one pounding vodka red bulls
I'll be the young man with a white belt and [insert trendy clothing company] button down tucked into my jeans.
Tabernacle is my favorite venue in the city. Was definitely a change to see it with the lights on at a corporate Christmas party this year.
Relevant tweet from the always hilarious George Wallace is relevant. "Cheesecake Factory is just a restaurant and not a factory at all. Cheesecake Factory is a lie and if you eat there you are part of the lie."
Pace Properties has bought another parole of land on Memorial Drive. In Kirkwood, thy bought the shopping center home to Club Esso. Place is pure shit. Would be major for the area and strip of Memorial
The property up the street where the Pizza Hut is horrible as well, but at least it isn't dilapidated
Any good suggestions for a business meetings in Sandy Springs? I have no idea what's around there. I hate going OTP.
Catch up, stuhly and curbed, I reported this weeks ago that they had their leasing sign up. It had been on the market for years.
