President’s Message These sites are now known as the Grinnell Lofts and Parish Restaurant, respectively. When Faye and I moved to Inman Park in 1997, the Grinnell building was vacant and Industrial Metals was forging steel I-beams under the watchful eye of a large, faded, plywood Atlanta Braves tomahawk. When the brains of our outfit (Faye) ordained in 2007 (after we practically gutted our DeGressAvenue house and rebuilt it several times over) that we would be moving to a condo, I scrambled to find a building that would keep us both in the neighborhood and still happily married to each other and not a 100-year-old house. An Internet search revealed that local architects Lord Aeck Sargent were designing a three-story building that would repurpose the old brick façade of the former Grinnell building but that would otherwise be a brand-new, modern build- ing of 24 1- and 2-bedroom condominiums. We initially selected a top-floor unit (based on Alex Coffman’s professional advice) facing east and one that would look out upon the only patch of green to be had (the weed patch formerly known as the Southern Railroad Line). continued on page 15 What’s Ahead for the Atlanta BeltLine Join us at the August IPNA meeting to hear from Fred Yalouris, Director of Design for Atlanta BeltLine, Inc. Fred will provide an update on several major Atlanta BeltLine projects, including the Westside Trail, the Eastside Trail Gateway, urban farming and the Edgewood Avenue Bridge among others. If you have the opportunity, consider taking one of the BeltLine tours (walk, ride or bike!) before hearing the latest at the meeting, and bring your BeltLine questions with you.
