  • 1- BUCKHEAD HERITAGE SOCIETY ORAL HISTORY PROJECT Interview with Cecil A. Alexander January 23, 2010 Q: Interviewer CA: Cecil A
    BUCKHEAD HERITAGE SOCIETY ORAL HISTORY PROJECT Interview with Cecil A. Alexander January 23, 2010 Q: Interviewer CA: Cecil Alexander HA: Helen Alexander Q: No, you are perfect. You look good. This is an interview with Cecil A. Alexander of Atlanta, Georgia, an accomplished architect and civil activist. This interview is being conducted on January 23, 2010 at his residence on River Road. The interviewers are, Mera Cardenas, Chad Wright and Wright Mitchell representing the Buckhead Heritage Society of Atlanta, Georgia. That is the formality. I think from there, you know, Wright mentioned the topics that he wanted to kind of touch base on and you mentioned that you were born in Virginia Highlands and moved. CA: No I was born on Forrest Avenue in my grandmother’s house, which is now Ralph McGill Boulevard. Forrest Avenue was named for the general who said if you want to win you have got to get there firstest with the mostest. But he was a fine general but he was one of the organizers of the Klan. Q: Right. Nathan Bedford Forrest. CA: Yes. And my father didn’t like living on a street named for Nathan Bedford Forrest and he always spelled it with one R and said it was named for the great trees that used to line the street there. But when I was I guess about 3 or 4 we moved to St. Charles Place, which is part of Atkins Park. There are three streets there, St. Louis, St. Augustine and St. Charles, a very saintly place to grow up.

  • Predicting Revitalization a Descriptive Narrative and Predictive Analysis of Neighborhood Revitalization in Atlanta, Georgia
    Georgia Institute of Technology Predicting Revitalization A Descriptive Narrative and Predictive Analysis of Neighborhood Revitalization in Atlanta, Georgia Caroline E. Burnette Applied Research Paper Advisor: Dr. Subhrajit Guhathakurta May 4, 2017 Over the past two decades, revitalization has been transforming many of Atlanta’s unique neighborhoods and attracting new residents, businesses, and investments to the city’s urban core. This has resulted in positive and negative effects that are important to consider as redevelopment continues throughout Atlanta, especially in low‐income or disadvantaged communities. In order to mitigate the consequences of redevelopment while highlighting opportunities for growth and innovation, it is important to investigate how and why some Atlanta neighborhoods undergo revitalization earlier or at a more rapid pace than others. This paper seeks to identify significant physical, sociodemographic, and policy‐related factors that may catalyze or otherwise predict revitalization in certain communities, and then apply these indicators to Atlanta’s remaining neighborhoods to classify those with a greater potential to revitalize in the coming years. To achieve this, a time‐lagged probit model was developed to measure hypothesized revitalization indicators within each of Atlanta’s Neighborhood Statistical Areas across multiple time periods. This model suggests that revitalization often occurs in Atlanta neighborhoods that overlap with designated historic districts, those that are within walking distance of transit stations and the Beltline, those that are adjacent to other revitalized neighborhoods, those with lower percentages of renter‐occupied housing units, and those with greater proportions of jobs in creative, higher education, and professional and technical service industries. Using these results, the model identified other neighborhoods that contain a combination of factors which make them susceptible to revitalization.
