The 1996 Olympics RUINED Atlanta. Anyone who lived during the 80s/90s will tell you this. After the Olympics, the corporate overlords moved in and started getting rid of a lot of old school establishments that really made the city a gem. The ghetto thugs shooting up Buckhead didn't help matters either, and an ENTIRE diverse bar/club area for 3 blocks was bulldozed shortly after and is now overpriced apartments. These types of things have continued and there are not many cool spots left, and new ones have not sprung up to take their place. The Atlanta city government has always been corrupt, but Bill Campbell (1994-2002) was one of the worst and ushered in a new wave of corruption that allowed these types of events to flourish. Atlanta since then has just been about money, bad government, increasing crime, and dead areas that were once a thriving diverse community. RIP
I remember when Buckhead had a thriving nightlife/club/bar scene in the 90's. That was so much fun! I can remember bar hopping and dancing all night. We always started at Lulu's with a giant fishbowl.
wow. I'm 20 and I live in Georgia and I like going up to Atlanta, but it really seems like it's now just a shell of what it used to really be. there's still cool stuff here and there, but it seemed a lot more fun back then.
2 questions about Vine City: What was the name of the apartment complex at the corner of West End Ave & Ashby (now Joseph Lowery Blvd), where the Ray Charles Center is now? And did Foundry, Magnolia & all those other parallel streets run across Northside to where GA Dome was?

Atlanta was an amazing place from the 80's through the 90's into the early 2000's. Unfortunately, it will never be like these videos ever again. It is the Chicago of the South, and for all the wrong reasons! During this time Atlanta was working to unite and Rise like the Phoenix. Which it accomplished up into the 1996 Olympics. But the start of the demise was when Katrina hit New Orleans. Many years from now they will trace the demise to that fateful event. Since then the only thing that matters are the corporations. The city left the common person long ago. I'm glad I got to see Atlanta during these final Golden Years! If you ever got to ride on the Original Painted Pig then, you can relate!
I didn’t expect them to mention that. I’m an Atlanta native and although I wasn’t born until well after the child murders happened my mom taught me that it won’t be shared a lot because that was poor black kids from the projects and they were lucky that the news covered it at all.
Back then, it was the finest city in the Southeast - Memphis, New Orleans, Charlotte, Birmingham were no match. It has suffered the fate of most medium-to-large American cities - corrupt municipal government, a huge homeless problem and the disappearance of a middle Class. A home that cost $13,000 in 1970 now goes for over $300,000.

I think it was filmed in the very late 80s probly around 88’ 89’ due to midtown’s skyline just beginning to take shape like the former ibm tower (now one Atlantic center) was just completed as some neighboring buildings where being built while the B.O.A. Plaza nor where peach tree center or, sun trust bank building built yet. Those where built around the mid 90s. I know my skylines :D
MARTA stand for Moving Africans Rapidly Through Atlanta. OMNI stand for One Million Niggaz Inside. That’s what we thought them folks really meant when I was young. Decatur where’s it Greater baby✊🏾107 Glenwood
Yes, but we weren't really welcomed in most downtown establishments. We splurged at the expensive stores downtown; however,we had many more Black businesses,in 2 business districts. Hunter St.(now MLK,Jr.Drive) and Auburn Ave. One of the few disadvantages of integration was that we took our business to places as a form of status.
I MOVED TO ATLANTA BACK IN 1974, I LIVED IN AN AREA KNOWN AS GWINNETT COUNTY, BETWEEN STONE MOUNTAIN AND SNELLVILLE. THERE WAS LESS THAN 15,000 PPL IN THE COUNTY( NOW OVER A MILLION) IT WAS ABOUT 99.9 PERCENT WHITE. ALL THE BLACKS LIVED IN DECATUR, ATLANTA, AND IN THE SOUTH WEST AREAS OF ATLANTA AND THEY DID NOT VENTURE IN THE SUBURBS WHERE I LIVED AT. IT WAS LIKE THAT UP TO ABOUT THE 90S AND THEY ALL STARTED INTEGRATING IN, EVEN BACK IN 1972 WE CONSIDERED ATLANTA A CHOCOLATE CITY WHICH IT REALLY WASNT COMPARED TO TODAY BUT THE HIGH SCHOOL I WENT TO WAS ALL WHITE AND IT WAS A GREAT TIME. ( NOT BECAUSE IT WAS PREDOMINANTLY WHITE IN THE SUBURBS BUT I SAW THE RISE OF THE NIGHTCLUB SCENE GROW IN ATLANTA IN THE 80S AND A LOT OF GOOD CONCERTS AND IT WAS A GREAT TIME TO BE LIVING IN THE ATLANTA AREA, I HAVE BEEN GONE FOR ALMOST 20 YRS AND WENT BACK LAST YR FOR A VISIT AND COULD NOT BELIEVE ALL THE CHANGES I SAW AND NOT FOR THE BETTER UNFORTUNATELY, I COULD NEVER LIVE THERE AGAIN BUT IT WILL ALWAYS BE A PART OF MY PAST THAT I WILL NEVER FORGET.
I MOVED THERE BACK IN 1972 AND LEFT IN 2000, I SAW THE NIGHT CLUB SCENE COME TO LIFE IN THE 70S AND 80S AND SAW A LOT OF GREAT CONCERTS, OUTSIDE OF HAVING TO MANY BLACKS IT WAS A FUN PLACE CAUSE IF WE DID NOT WANT THE BLACKS AROUND WE JUST SIMPLY IGNORED THEM OR TOLD THEM THAT WE WERE NOT INTERESTED IN BUYING WHAT THEY WERE TRYING TO SELL, WHICH WAS EITHER STOLEN OR BULLSHIT AND THAT WAS THAT.

Atlanta Ga is capable of being the most prominent and aspiring place one should be proud to call home due to all the amendies the city has to offer but the division racewise power control and otherwise is where the city requires major improvements. The homosexuality and the Atlanta Missing and Murdered Children fully unresolved murder case matters until full justice is served Atlanta will have a permanent stain on it. There has to be closure and resolve for the sake of grieving mothers and love ones sake The state of New York has a major business interest and control over Atlanta and Decatur Ga.
