  • The Atlanta Preservation Center's
    THE ATLANTA PRESERVATION CENTER’S Phoenix2017 Flies A CELEBRATION OF ATLANTA’S HISTORIC SITES FREE CITY-WIDE EVENTS PRESERVEATLANTA.COM Welcome to Phoenix Flies ust as the Grant Mansion, the home of the Atlanta Preservation Center, was being constructed in the mid-1850s, the idea of historic preservation in America was being formulated. It was the invention of women, specifically, the ladies who came J together to preserve George Washington’s Mount Vernon. The motives behind their efforts were rich and complicated and they sought nothing less than to exemplify American character and to illustrate a national identity. In the ensuing decades examples of historic preservation emerged along with the expanding roles for women in American life: The Ladies Hermitage Association in Nashville, Stratford in Virginia, the D.A.R., and the Colonial Dames all promoted preservation as a mission and as vehicles for teaching contributive citizenship. The 1895 Cotton States and International Exposition held in Piedmont Park here in Atlanta featured not only the first Pavilion in an international fair to be designed by a woman architect, but also a Colonial Kitchen and exhibits of historic artifacts as well as the promotion of education and the arts. Women were leaders in the nurture of the arts to enrich American culture. Here in Atlanta they were a force in the establishment of the Opera, Ballet, and Visual arts. Early efforts to preserve old Atlanta, such as the Leyden Columns and the Wren’s Nest were the initiatives of women. The Atlanta Preservation Center, founded in 1979, was championed by the Junior League and headed by Eileen Rhea Brown.

P 817 West Peachtree Street, NW P The Biltmore, Suite 601 P Atlanta, GA 30308 P (404) 419-8700 May 13, 2013 Niles Ford, Ph.D., City Manager City of Chamblee, GA 5468 Peachtree Road Chamblee, GA 30341 Dear Dr. Ford: Downtown Chamblee is a hidden gem situated in the heart of the Atlanta metropolitan region. Chamblee has a quaint character rich with history and poised for enhancement and growth. Chamblee was built, in part, on its combination of transportation assets. Freight, regional rail, air travel, and major vehicular routes all pass directly through the center of the community. Since Chamblee’s original LCI Plan in 2000, you have invested in the Town Center, helping new retail and residential developments come alive. The area has added residential units, small retail outlets, a large commercial shopping area, and streetscape enhancements to improve walkability. These investments have set the stage for private investment and community improvement. Over the last five years, private sector investment and development became stagnant as a casualty of the recession. With significant shifts in the regional marketplace, this LCI update will provide the City of Chamblee with an opportunity to clarify and augment its community goals and priorities and to envision and encourage appropriate infill development. Additionally, the plan will prioritize public investments to enhance the area’s character, connectivity, and accessibility.
