Georgia Tech owns the property next to mine. In June 2003, a project began there to demolish most of the existing units (including a 10-story tower) and rebuild, using more of the available space. Below are some pictures of this project as it progresses:


On July 23rd, the crane (to swing the wrecking ball) is first visible from my alleyway.


This is the front of my house, Georgia Tech's property is to the left.


This is the view from further down my street, showing the tower to be removed. In the background, you can see the SunTrust Plaza tower downtown. June 2003.


This shows the existing 10-storey structure from the alleyway that I share with 3 other homeowners. That's my neighbor's garage, and the overgrown fence behind that is Georgia Tech's. June 2003.


This is my garage and back yard from the alleyway. Again, the fence and vines on the right belong to Georgia Tech, and will probably be removed. There will be a retaining wall near there, as they excavate part of the hill that slopes down to the existing parking lot. June 2003.


The view from my front porch to the existing property. July 2003.


The first sign of progress, a construction trailer in the parking lot. July 2003.
