This side is significantly less improved at the moment than the rest of West End, hence lower price. The exterior looks like it was nicely redone (altho they took out the railing detail which was cute… should have left it). The inside however is a slapstick job, especially the kitchen and baths… which is the most amt of money that you’d need to spend to update a home. Overall, a lipstick on a pig job. Save your money go for a real top to bottom renovation.

Alex Gar, you are correct, the Gold Coast Loop West Loop Lakeview Andersenville and Edgewater are the areas that I was referring to when seeing the mostly older folks oppose any new development. The problem, and the irony is the folks concerned with stopping the ill effects of gentrification fail to realize how stimming development and greater density in already thriving neighborhoods only hastens the pace of gentrification in up and coming areas.

I walked by here once when I got lost trying to follow the Beltline where it transitions awkwardly into pre-existing Path trail. On the one hand, this location is around the corner from the Kroger for groceries. On the other hand, that Kroger intersection is pretty unpleasant (I was on foot) and there doesn’t seem to be a lot else there besides auto shops and so on. I only walked through once, so maybe I’m wrong (I guess the Lean Draft House is on the far side of the Kroger), but I think I would prefer to be in a different part of West End, closer to the MARTA station. You could do worse for under $300k though.

I say vote against the Elite (class and economic discrimination). https://youtu.be/OTVXBgpYeHY . Winghop: I agree. Less and less people on the train yet we keep building. The majority of affordable income people will not be living at the TOC centers, and neither will the moderate rate income people. So the only people living there will be the market rate and up and they will be driving cars instead of trains. Only the affordable income people know that it will take a whole day to make multiple east-west and north-south trips and a car is much faster. The TOC plans were doomed from the beginning and the only people they benefit is the developers and those politicians who have stock in their companies.

Google maps has it as .5 miles form the west side fare gates under the tracks up Peachtree Road and down Chamblee Dunwoody Way. No hills on that Route though if one gets tired they can grab a beer at Hopstix, Blue Top or Southbound.

Actually looking at Google maps made me realize how large that 1 story warehouse/loading dock building that sits between Peachtree Rd., American Industrial Way and Chamblee Dunwoody Rd (behind the condo building with Vintage Pizza) is. What a huge prime piece of Real Estate.

I have attended some meetings due to my work and the only NIMBYism that I’ve seen matching your description is in the West Loop and occasionally LP/Lakeview. Jefferson Park to an extent. Everywhere else? Opposition to any and all development is exclusively driven by bearded leftists and identity affinity groups who believe that "gentrification" is their greatest threat, when it is really often themselves.

This is going to have its own retail and act as an extension of the West Marietta St. NW retail. It’s about a 3 minute walk to Terminal West or places like Optimist. It’s pretty damn close to a lot of stuff.

Sure, it’s not the Interlock or Star Metals, but pretending this is out in the boonies is kind of silly.

The reason we are in this situation in the first place is that LA seems to hate to see rich people get richer. The reason all of the lower priced houses have been bid up is because all of the people that have made a lot of money during the financial recovery years have nowhere else to buy. If you constantly stop developers from building housing for more affluent people those people will have no other resort then to buy what is available on the market. No one is going to give up their high paying job because they can’t find a place to live that won’t "displace" someone. The ugly truth is all these well paid millennials have been "displaced" from all the traditionally more affluent west side and have no other choice then to bring some diversity to long term minority neighborhoods.

2. Why are there couches shoved in the nursery and master bedroom? You’ve made every room look tiny, even if it may not be.

In historic homes with original hardwood, you expect at least one piece of tasteful victorian furniture (or a West Elm knock off at least). This house lacks those furniture pieces. I won’t say that the furniture choices are bad but they don’t really fit the historic home’s pedigree (or are leftover pieces from a previous modern house).

How long before Tech builds a pedestrian bridge over Northside Drive to "reconnect 8th Street for all of its students who will be living in this West Marietta/Howell Mill corridor?
