NEWSLETTER 2010

Board Members Dear Friends, As the oppressive summer months slip thankfully away, we at Buckhead Heritage are W. Wright Mitchell looking forward to fall. Cooler weather, football and changing leaves are just around President the corner. So is our inaugural fundraiser, Party in the Pasture, which is scheduled for Tamara A. Bazzle October 23, 2010. But before we turn our sights to fall, I want to briefly reflect on Vice President some of our recent achievements. Robert F. Helget The biggest news of 2010 at Buckhead Heritage was the hiring of our new Executive Treasurer Director, Erica Danylchak. With a Master of Heritage Preservation degree from Charles W. Wright State University and work experience at the History Center, Erica Secretary possesses all of the credentials necessary to make an excellent Executive Director. But it is her boundless enthusiasm for Buckhead Heritage’s mission and her willingness to Ivan Allen, IV take on any task that has impressed our Board of Directors most. Beckie Amos In her short eight months on the job, Erica has already presided over a sold out Civil Claudia Barnes War lecture at Bobby Jones Golf Course and a sold out lecture on Buckhead Barbara Bazzel architecture at The Cathedral of St. Philip. Erica has also been serving as a Boyd Coons preservation resource to the community through our Landowner Technical Assistance Program. Recently, she spearheaded the preparation of a National Register Henry Howell nomination for Sardis United Methodist Church. She is also working on an interesting Sam Massell project with the Cherokee Garden Library to identify and document any remaining James Ottley work of legendary landscape architect, William Monroe, Sr. You will find an article by John Snodgrass Erica on this project in the Newsletter. On the preservation front, Buckhead Heritage continues to fight against the proposed Jill Toth removal of Mt. Olive Cemetery at Frankie Allen Park. To this end, Buckhead Heritage ______filed a lawsuit against the developer who bought the cemetery property. Although his Erica Danylchak Application for a Burial Disturbance Permit was denied by the Atlanta City Council, he Executive Director has appealed this ruling to the Fulton County Superior Court in hopes of having the City Council’s decision overturned. While the City defends this lawsuit, Buckhead Heritage presses forward with its own lawsuit against the developer. Buckhead Heritage’s Oral History Project continues to flourish under the direction of Mission: Board Member Chad Wright. You can view clips of some of the interviews on our own Buckhead Heritage YouTube channel! Our interns, Angelica Dion, Steve Bare and Mera Cardenas have strives to sustain the done a great job for us and we are indebted to Founding Member Deirdre Finan for quality of life in helping us get our archives in order!

building adjacent to Powers Ferry Road. In 1925, Sardis Methodist Church employed local architect James Owen Southwell to design the elegant edifice passersby see today. Southwell had studied architecture at Tulane University and later attended the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburg where he studied under renowned architect Henry Hornbostel. Hornbostel later employed Southwell and asked Southwell to manage his Atlanta office. In 1922, however, Southwell entered into private practice; he was one of the few trained architects practicing in Atlanta at the time.
