Atlanta Then and Now » (Special Value)

Atlanta is not only the South's leading city, but also a world-class metropolis. Rich in history and culture, the city has grown and changed dramatically over the last century, while still retaining strong ties to its past. Atlanta Then and Now provides a unique view of these changes. Black-and-white archival photos from the first half of the last century are shown side by side with photos of the same scene today. Five Points, Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthplace, the State Capitol, and Peachtree Street are all here. The lovely homes and dogwood-filled neighborhoods are also featured.
