"Can't park there mate!"
420 Fest has never been same since they left Candler Park and started charging for entry.
Eugenics.
Having an absentee police force is what led to this situation.
55 days until the FIFA World Cup. Atlanta is not ready for this.
I'm not Atlanta drivers are ever going to stop parking in micromobility lanes.
City of Atlanta when progressives propose something in Atlanta that *might* be construed as conflicting with state law:
"Whoa, we can't do THAT!"
City, when mayor proposes something terrible that (clearly) runs afoul of state law & told he can't:
"What? We'll sue if you try to stop us!"
What is YOUR definition of an "outsider" and why are you gatekeeping Atlanta?
Performative politics is wasting time and taxpayer resources.
What defines an "outsider"?
The city has 0 authority over federal law enforcement.
Its a non-binding resolution.๐คฆโโ๏ธ

Converting mid 20th century offices, with large floor plates, into housing is not easy. Too much space not near windows. Who wants to live in a space w/o windows?
This is why I cringed when Atlanta bought 2 Peachtree from the state.
No, its EXACTLY Atlanta's way. I suggest reading @kevinmkruse.bsky.social's White Flight: Atlanta and the Making of Modern Conservatism

This time it'll be different.๐คก
Does anyone think the ACP board members care about public school funding? Look at who's on the board and tell me if they send their kids to public school? Its all CEOs of Atlanta's largest corporations. NRI is just another chapter in The Atlanta Way.

It really is something watching Dickens line up all the city institutions in support of his Neighborhood Reinvestment TAD scheme while in parallel using Zoning 2.0 to stridently preserve the Jim Crow zoning maps that caused the disinvestment in the first place.
Keisha used HQ2 mania to give the Ressler billionaire bros a $1.9 billion tax subsidy for the Gulch. The project's numbers were based on 9M SF of office towers for 50,000 Amazonians.
Actual offices built: 0 SF.
Keisha for the People, right?

My operator did not stop at Fulton County Government station.
I will give MARTA the benefit of the doubt and it's a learning/training curve for the bus operators. Of course construction downtown could be holding up the bus.
No one ever accused MARTA of being a competent transit agency. The current 40' buses are the same model as can be found on all routes, so the doors should align.
NIMBY
It is raised for level boarding.
Annette Aguilar an organizer with the Georgia Latino Alliance for Human Rights, says that her organization has learned that Fulton County intends to house detained persons at a private prison in Irwin County.โ
I asked the MARTA reps on the A line if regular buses would use the bus only lanes. They said yes, but not the stations.
Need the state legislature to approve camera enforcement.
This is a permanent station. It serves as the transfer to Five Points.
MARTA is working out the kinks and nuisances. The bus I rode had a training instructing helping the driver align to the platforms and show where the temporary stops are on Hank Aaron.
