Description

In this episode, we crack open the history of Five Points in Atlanta.  Many today know it as the nucleus of the MARTA transit system.  However, in the past it's been so much more (slave auction site) than meets the eye.  As developers eye Five Points and the remainder of south Downtown Atlanta for gentrification, we wanted our audience to know the perils of developing so rapidly that you don't understand/know the history of what's being changed.
