Looks like they are tearing down the whole block on the edge of Pine Hills near Cross Keys High School. I don't care much except for this one. It was different, it seemed to belong there, and it always caught my eye on my thousand drive-bys. I've included a couple of maps and and video walk-through.


A bit of rare courage got me inside. It hadn't been abandoned long. I could still "feel" the life inside.

It's 1785 North Druid Hills at the corner of Goodwin. Looks like they'll tear down the whole block for three different little developments.

Half an acre is an estate in the city. The new development will be denser.

From the screened porch. It was bright inside and fooled my camera.

I'd want a bit more visual separation between the public and private spaces but that could have been done.

Sorry for the blur. The living room and kitchen/family room shared the transom / clerestory windows (whatever they are) and the sloping ceiling. You get a better sense of the space from the video below.
