Decided to take a ride in the convertible and see first hand what all the fuss is about.

We were looking at new homes in TV in Sept 07. We specifically looked at an under construction Designer home that backed up to an empty lot overlooking 466A. Our realtor said he heard a Publix was going to go on the empty lot. I have no doubt that in 07 nobody was sure what was going to be there as property was for sale and nothing was finalized. We didn't buy the home for reasons having nothing to do with the empty lot.

That home now backs up directly to the multi story facility as do others. I doubt there is anybody who frequents this site that would want one of these homes. Whether or not somebody is looking out of their window or not is irrelevant. It's not a pretty site and no doubt their property values are dramatically affected.

Bottom line, it's a mess if you live directly behind it. Doubt you could have found out about it in 07.

I suggest all of you who think it's not a big deal get in your golf cart or car and go see for your selves and then ask a simple question, would I want to live there?

Of course if you happen to be in front of a computer screen in Atlanta, you can just keep imagining it's all just "gorgeous". Well guess what, it's not!
