Kelly Jordan, who has lived in Atlanta since 1968, attended Emory University before he and partners revitalized Little Five Points into one of Atlanta's most eclectic retail districts. In recent years, Kelly has been leading the Arabia Mountain Heritage Area Alliance, and he has been active with a host of non-profit organizations. Decades ago, Kelly wrote architectural criticism for a weekly Atlanta newspaper, and his interest in cultural, natural and built environments is readily apparent in the photos he posts on SaportaReport.
