Great interview on City Cafe with Prof. Crimmons this week about the history of the Fabulous Fox Theatre. It celebrates it's 80th anniversary on Christmas Day!
Ran across an outstanding paper on the history of Ponce Springs from the early days when the streetcar first went there in the 1870's through the amusement park days ending in the 1920's. Highly recommended work by Sarah Toton for Southern Spaces:
Here's a great interview with a long-time Atlanta planner. He talks about the early days of MARTA, working with Mayors Allen and Jackson, putting together the vision for the NPU system and, if that's not enough, the planning for the 1996 Olympics. What a great guy!
