Our friend Kelly Jordan was out and about last week and snapped some amazing photos of the Pullman Yards. There is a lot of talk about what will happen to this historic property. Take a look behind the fence here:

Photo Pick: The Ponce by Rob Augustine

September 22, 2016, 11:22 am/7 Comments

From Rob: “Since completion in 1913, The Ponce has shared its place in Atlanta History with the Georgian Terrace and later the Fox Theater. The Ponce’s rooftop with its sentinel lions, balustrade, and ornamentation is amazing. The foyer of the Ponce with its wooded décor and beautiful Tiffany skylight beckons you in.

That all three of these buildings are located in what is called the Fox Triangle means you have to visit and enjoy the designs and motifs here of our early 20th Century Atlantans.”
