2008 Telephone Factory Art Show - links to artists' websites - a few notes

I went on Sunday December 7. I had a great time: More than enough art and a tour of a great industrial building full of hard lofts. The lofts themselves were stunning. Even the smallest are breathtaking spaces. The biggest would make decent skateboard parks.P.S. Somebody cut down those trees that ruin the view of the colonnaded entrance. The art is overwhelming after a while. By the time I was done, I was mentally exhausted. I wanted to tour the artists' websites at my leisure. But there isn't a list of links to their sites. So I made one. If you are one of the artists, please tell me about any mistakes.

I couldn't get the whole south facade in one picture. It's a very big building, on a landscaped hilltop. It's a proud and elegant facade with yellow brick horizontals with red brick columns breaking up the long horizontal spans of windows. Work is work but if you have to work anywhere, how nice to work in a first class factory building. Four stories to the left, a colonnaded entrance tower and one story to the right also disguise the bulk of the building. It would be typical of Southern Bell / ATT to use this design all over America as is the case of the "<a href="http://chatterbox.typepad.com/portlandarchitecture/2008/10/have-you-visited-the-ford-buildinglately.html">Ford Factory" (here is a Ford Factory in Portland)</a> building on Ponce. You could splurge more on design if you are building more than one. The south facade's one-story end. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3092406755/" title="PC081483-Telephone-Factory-South-Facade-Right by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC081483-Telephone-Factory-South-Facade-Right" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3042/3092406755_9ece1c00dc.jpg" width="500" /></a> The tree blocks the elegant entrance. I'm sure it's a great tree, maybe even historic. CUT IT DOWN and plant some historic trees on a smaller scale. I'm sure the architects would gasp if they saw this. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3092406713/" title="PC081482-Telephone-Factory-South-Facade-Center by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC081482-Telephone-Factory-South-Facade-Center" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3193/3092406713_bbb8e8cbe0.jpg" width="500" /></a> The west end shows 4 stories engaging the slope. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3093247382/" title="PC081484-Telephone-Factory-South-Facade-Left by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC081484-Telephone-Factory-South-Facade-Left" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3082/3093247382_eefb4e2712.jpg" width="500" /></a> The west facade faces the railroad, soon to become now the Belt Line. The building continues to show a pretty face. The stair could have been boring. Instead they have a softening curve. Great details. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3092406831/" title="PC081486-Telephone-Factory-South-And-West-Facades by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC081486-Telephone-Factory-South-And-West-Facades" height="500" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3011/3092406831_7514172629.jpg" width="375" /></a>

Dresden neighborhood - "big wall" building and abandoned vernacular

0 big wall, Brookhaven, vernacular 05.22

It's the west end of Dresden. Maybe it's Ashford Park. Anyway, a great location for tear-downs but not a legacy of great architecture. The original homes do have their charms: Nice lot, modest house, 2 outbuildings, a great house for grandma and grandpa. But next door, the big wall - the big monolithic wall. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3075740357/" title="PC011402-Dresden-Ellijay-Giant-Nextto-Original by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC011402-Dresden-Ellijay-Giant-Nextto-Original" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3199/3075740357_3d0d4f8252.jpg" width="500" /></a> There are 2 abandoned vernacular homes on Dresden near Ellijay that always catch my eye and another hidden in the overgrowth. These would be happy anywhere in the rural south. Makes me curious about the history of the area. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3075739949/" title="PC011395-Dresden-Parkside-2-Story-SouthSide-Porch by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC011395-Dresden-Parkside-2-Story-SouthSide-Porch" height="361" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3217/3075739949_afc7577ceb.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3075740337/" title="PC011401-Dresden-Parkside-2-Story-EastSide by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC011401-Dresden-Parkside-2-Story-EastSide" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3190/3075740337_435ff4d57e.jpg" width="500" /></a> Next door is a modest 1-story with porch and dormer on a great hilltop lot. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3076572716/" title="PC011397-Dresden-Parkside-1-Story-SouthSide by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC011397-Dresden-Parkside-1-Story-SouthSide" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3025/3076572716_83be2b5466.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3076572770/" title="PC011398-Dresden-Parkside-1-Story-SouthSide by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC011398-Dresden-Parkside-1-Story-SouthSide" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3295/3076572770_0c35c69884.jpg" width="500" /></a> It's for sale. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/18814459@N00/3075740261/" title="PC011400-Dresden-Parkside-2-Story-Sign by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="PC011400-Dresden-Parkside-2-Story-Sign" height="341" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3145/3075740261_b66d5c7fc0.jpg" width="500" /></a> This one on Ellijay hides in the brush.

Zen View - Atlantic Center from Peachtree and Ellis Streets

0 atlanta, downtown, zen view 07.36

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. 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. <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> Did you know that Atlantic Center is on the site of the first Mellow Mushroom Pizza joint?
