| | | MonkeyGang, the city is not that dangerous. The scene disappearing has nothing to do with safety. Quite the contrary, it’s disappearing because of gentrification and the fact that ATL is in a HUGE boom of being rebuilt and “revitalized.” (ie the development of the Beltline) ATL is now a growing hub for the movie industry and a lot of old time spots are being purchased by such to be used in films, movies etc. (ie Pullman Yard) As a result, the majority of remaining spots are in neighborhoods or areas that are relatively unsafe... however, as even those neighborhoods are being redeveloped, even more locations are being repurposed, or worse... torn down to build ugly modern multi-purposed apartment buildings.(ie Memorial Dr. between Boulevard and Moreland) It’s pretty much a cancer and even the most “dangerous” neighborhoods will not be safe for long. The cost of living is rising and POC and queer folk (ie Midtown, West End, Old Fourth Ward, etc) are being pushed out of their longtime neighborhoods to make room for more affluent out of towners. It’s sad, but happening all over the country. There is still lots of abandonment, just not so much within metro-ATL anymore. I’ll get off my soap-box now.
