Seriously, you guys make so many excuses. “Temper your expectations”. How about you elevate your own.
Time and time again we see this in Atlanta where people say “now don’t get your hopes up” or “that’s not possible there”, when actually most of Atlanta is within 3 miles of our urban core. Where land is cheap it’s easy to invest heavily and completely transform a neighborhood. Looks what’s happened in O4W, along Howell Mill, Buckhead Village, more recently Memorial Drive, and what we are currently seeing along Capitol Ave and Marietta Blvd. Hell, section 8 housing on Parkway and Boulevard are being demolished and new luxury townhomes and apartments are going in next door.
Change is coming for every neighborhood, whether or not you want to take your head out of the sand or not.
My biggest gripe is how commonplace the tolerance for complacency and half-assed work is here. This wouldn’t be acceptable in most small cities, yet people make all sorts of excuses here. It’s nauseating.
