Castleberry Hills- I could live here!

I’m an artist at heart and have longed to pursue a career in the field..unfortunately that will have to be a “next life time” adventure unless I can start carving out some time to make this passion a reality.  In the mean time, working around it and other artists satisfies some of the void. I really could live […]

What’s going on in the S.W.A.T.S.?

It’s been a long day,emotionally. I took time to catch up on a few Netflix movies -that queue has been piling put for months. But as usual I can’t do just one thing so during the Black Panther Revolution, Marvin Gaye’s crossing dressing father scene and a 1998  Vibe issue (which caused me to reminisce on my 1998 wedding),  I was […]

Historic Washington Park

Driving past Ashby Street train station will either leave you with a sense of “Hide your kids, Lock your doors”  or it can leave you a bit curious about how this great community appears to be blighted from their major corridor.  The park right besides the train would be welcoming to travelers- if you can […]

Can you see it?

I never noticed this but I will be sure to check the next time I’m in Capitol View Manor. It is said this small community was named for its excellent view of the Georgia State Capitol building. What I did notice, were all the like-kind brick Bungalows, Cape Cods and Victorians.  There is something about being next to homes similar in […]

The day after Thanksgiving…

“The Bluff”

….We’re not in Kansas anymore…. At least, that’s what you would think after reading Wiki: “The Bluff is a district within the area that is infamous throughout metro Atlanta for the availability of drugs, heroin in particular. The borders of The Bluff are defined differently by different sources. For example the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and Creative […]

Is Loft living for you?

Interested in living on the Westside?  Take a stroll down Marietta Street and be amazed by the transformation.  The inviting sleek developments and industrial loft conversions will make you consider changing your wardrobe to ALL black and opening a gallery (which is not a bad idea!).  I love the clean lines and mod feel of the […]
