ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA As more fully described in this Designation Report, the Briarcliff Plaza Landmark District (LD) meets the following criteria for a Landmark District, as defined in Section 16-20.004(b)(2)(c): Group I - Historic Significance (a total of three (3) possible criteria): The Briarcliff Plaza Landmark District (LD) meets one (1) criterion: (2) The District includes structures and spaces that are closely associated with extremely important historical trends of local significance. The District reflects the changing land use patterns caused by increased automobile ownership in Atlanta during the 1920s and 1930s as the City transitioned from an older model of urban and suburban physical growth based on pedestrian, railroad, and streetcar public transit. Briarcliff Plaza (later known as the Ponce de Leon Shopping Plaza) was the first commercial shopping center in Atlanta, and among the first in the Southeast, to include off-street parking in the original site design to better accommodate middle and upper class residents in nearby neighborhoods who performed their shopping and recreational activities by car. It was a new form of auto-oriented commercial and residential development in the city that would be later followed by the car-centric residential suburbs built throughout metropolitan Atlanta and the nation after World War II. Group II- Architectural Significance (a total of fourteen (14) possible criteria): The Briarcliff Plaza Landmark District (LD) meets eleven (11) criteria: (1) The District includes structures and spaces that are exceptionally strongly related, both functionally and aesthetically. The site plan and design of the District all serves to facilitate commercial retail activity conducted via the automobile. In contrast to older commercial forms where buildings typically fronted the public street in pedestrian-oriented central business districts and along streetcar- serviced commercial corridors, the buildings in the District were placed near the center of the lots with deep setbacks from the public rights-of-way to allow for front and rear off-street parking. Motorists could conveniently access the parking from North Highland Avenue and Cleburne Terrace (via Ponce de Leon and Blue Ridge Avenues) and space was provided within the site to allow for internal flow-through vehicular circulation between buildings and lots. Finally, the design of the District’s buildings, with their bright exterior facades and decorative illuminated signage, served as “architecture for speed-reading,” providing a modern and positive advertising expression that could quickly capture the attention of motorists passing at high rates of speed (Liebs 1985, 41, 57). (2) The District includes exceptionally important elements of the streetscape which are functionally or aesthetically related. With its brightly lit and highly-visible Art Deco Style neon signage the District has become a prominent landmark feature of the Ponce de Leon Avenue streetscape and the adjacent Poncey-Highland, Atkins Park, and Virginia-Highland neighborhoods in the 87 years since its completion in 1940. Additionally, the District’s relationship with the surrounding streetscape as an auto-oriented commercial retail complex, particularly its original points of egress for both pedestrian and vehicular access, is also an important element of its historic character and design.

    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.

    Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl Parade

    Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl Parade On December 4th, the decision was finally made and the opponents in the “Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl” have been decided and they are: #1 Alabama and #4 Washington. Based on that information the parade will be Saturday morning, December 31st, stepping off at 9:00 AM. For that reason we will be pre-staging in the parking lot of “The 120 Tavern & Music Hall”, 1440 Roswell Rd. (rt. 120), across from Williamson Bros. BBQ at 7:15AM for a prompt departure and caravan to our staging area at 7:30 AM. That will get us to the staging area in front of Max Lager’s restaurant, 320 Peachtree St. NE by 8:00 AM. Since Chris and I will be out of the country this year and unable to participate in this event, we have enlisted the help of Herb & Sharon Guck to finalize the pre- parade organization of our group. Dawn Norman has agreed to lead the group/caravan to the staging area. As previously mentioned, this year will be a first in Atlanta as we are hosting one of the semi-final games, and with Alabama being one of the teams, the attendance is expected to be OVER THE TOP!!!! We can still use a few more convertibles or Corvettes with removable roofs so if you are inclined to participate in this event we ask you to signup NOW on the Classic Glass website by going HERE. In order that we may have an accurate count on the cars needed, you must sign up there to be counted.

COOK Under the Direction of Jeffrey B. Glover, PhD ABSTRACT From the excavation of Atlanta's first municipal dumps, a collection of the city’s oldest and most popular medicines has been analyzed. The process of identifying and exploring the stories behind the medicinal vessels of the Metro Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) archaeological collection has led to several paths of inquiry. One such avenue is a look at local manufacturers, their impact, and their products. Focused on embossed glass bottles from 1860-1920 this thesis investigates the roles of medicinal bottles as symbolic for Atlanta’s Gilded Age. I gathered detailed information on nearly 100 products represented by 222 vessels. These artifacts are derived from three sites unearthed during the MARTA excavations conducted by Georgia State University archaeologists during the late-1970s.
