Red Adorondak chairs in Sherwood Forrest.

I love corner houses. They have 2 sides to present to the street. This one is a charmer. It has loads of details but doesn't shout. The red chairs - orangy red I guess - give a nice pop to the white on white.<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3063015934/" title="PB251323Sherwood-Red-Chairs-Corner by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PB251323Sherwood-Red-Chairs-Corner" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3045/3063015934_d022815de3.jpg" width="500" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3064836316/" title="PB251324Sherwood-Red-Chairs-Corner by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PB251324Sherwood-Red-Chairs-Corner" height="306" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3183/3064836316_ff274ef482.jpg" width="500" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3062176485/" title="PB251321Sherwood-Red-Chairs-Corner by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PB251321Sherwood-Red-Chairs-Corner" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3015/3062176485_9cbc77950f.jpg" width="500" /></a>

Zen View - Atlantic Center from Peachtree and Ellis Streets

Atlantic Center is what we used to call the IBM building at 14th and West Peachtree. It's beautiful but the key point for Architecture Tourists is viewing while driving north on West Peachtree Street. I think the sighted the building for that view even at the price of height. The lot is at lower evelvation that one on Peachtree Street.<br /><br />But that's not what this post is about. You are driving north on Peachtree from Little Five Points. You pass the Georgia Pacific Building on your right, finnally cresting the highest point in downtown Atlanta: Peachtree at Ellis Street at the old Davison's department store. Dead ahead is your Zen view of Atlantic Center. The view only lasts a few blocks.<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3063015870/" title="PB251320-Zen-Ellis-At-Peachtree-Atlantic-Center by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PB251320-Zen-Ellis-At-Peachtree-Atlantic-Center" height="444" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3142/3063015870_27177c1302.jpg" width="500" /></a><br /><br />Did you know that Atlantic Center is on the site of the first Mellow Mushroom Pizza joint?

Greek revival: an Emory Theater and a Brookhaven dry cleaner.

The <a href="http://schwartzcenter.emory.edu/">Schwartz Center for Performing Arts at Emory University</a> is a showpiece at the corner of North Decatur and Clifton Roads. It has a lot to live up to. Glenn Memorial United Methodist Church anchors the west street front of Emory. The Schwartz center anchors the east end. It's a very high style block where Emory shows it best. If you can find a parking place, tour the center on foot.
