SkyView Ferris Wheel Atlanta to Appear on the Downtown Skyline!

by

Skyview Atlanta Ferris Wheel
Rendition Compliments of ABC

Downtown Atlanta is about to get another new attraction…and a pretty cool one at that!

The Atlanta City Council approved plans for the Atlanta Ferris Wheel, called SkyView Atlanta, at its Monday meeting. No city funds are being used to install the ferris wheel, but the City Council did have to approve the project due to neighboring utility lines, and the soon to arrive Atlanta Streetcar.

SkyView Atlanta Ferris Wheel will have an international connection as it was first in Paris,France! More recently it was in Pensacola, Florida and is currently in Pennsylvania, although it does not mention if it is in storage or in use there. It is expected that Skyview will begin assembly here in Atlanta within just a few weeks, and may even be up and running in June! Stay tuned her and I’ll be sure to capture some photos of the site before, during and after the assembly of the Wheel.

The cost for a ride is expected to be $13 and last about 15 minutes.

 Cornerstone Village in Midtown Atlanta has always been a unique condominium opportunity in Midtown Atlanta. This home is equally unique. From the exposed concrete floors and brick walls to stainless steel baseboards….it’s just got “cool and hip” written all over this one!

Need to remember things? Check out the chalkboard door! Upgraded stainless appliances including a DOUBLE oven will make entertaining a breeze! Or easy to prepare the takeout from any number of local restaurants! The combination pantry/laundry room is just off the kitchen. Granite counters complete this kitchen and are featured in both bathrooms as well.

The breakfast bar is perfect for entertaining, or that quick coffee before you head to work. The open Living/Dining room can accomodate your dining area and living! Take in the beautiful Midtown skyline view from expansive windows.

Two bedrooms and two full baths are also a perfect room-mate option in this home. Georgia Tech Parents, you just might want to check this one out!

As the owners replaced the standard baseboards with stainless steel, they added unique tile accents to both bathrooms…not something you will see in Cornerstone Village!

This home as two side-by-side covered parking spaces in the gated garage.

Cornerstone Village amenities include a resort-styled pool, poolside grilling/dining area, landscaped grounds, an on-site pet walk, fitness center and movie theater. Everything you need for Midtown Atlanta living at it’s best!

Outside your front door….dining delights are on every corner! Just a few blocks away, you’ll find a Publix Urban Market for those grocery needs! Piedmont Park, popular for jogging, picnics and festivals is a few short blocks away. Or maybe a visit to the High Museum or Fox Theatre for a play? It’s all within a quick walk from your Cornerstone Village home!

Come, look, and you will see why Cornerstone Village is a great community, and the perfect place to call home.

Houzz. Have You Discovered THIS Site?

by

You might think that living in a condominium limits your creativity when it comes to remodeling or making changes. Nothing could be further from the truth. What MAY limit you is your pocketbook, or your imagination.

Mind you, remodeling in a condominium is much different than living in a single family home. In a house, it’s all yours. You don’t share walls, or have pipes from other peoples homes passing through the walls of your house. But in a condo, you do. But that should not stop you from thinking about changes you could make. You just have to follow more of a process.

But if you need to start coming up with some ideas, and you have not yet found Houzz..…let me be the first to introduce you!

This awesome site is jam packed with all kinds of ideas for every room in your condo…from the kitchen to the closets! You will find all kinds of neat ideas here.

And you can do minor, or you can do major….just depends. You want to keep the cost in mind in comparison to how long you have, or will be living in your condo. If you think you will be selling soon, don’t pump a ton of money into something you won’t get a return on. but some minor things you CAN do to a Midtown Atlanta condo are also easy. My first suggestion to any of my Buyers is change out the kitchen back splash.  If you buy in an older building, adding tile to the kitchen and bath floors could be a nice change. Also, although more pricey, is a shower/tub surround re-tile.

Whatever your plans, or ideas, you’ll get a great start at Houzz!

What IS Being a Midtown Atlanta Real Estate Agent All About?

by

As a consumer, you may not really know or understand the role your real estate agent plays when you buy or sell a house.

That really could be OUR fault! But then, we sometimes serve as the “punching bag” as you will…kind of shielding you from all the things the happen, and HALF TO HAPPEN in order for you to buy or sell that house or condominium.

What IS Being a Midtown Atlanta Real Estate Agent All About?

Well, at the end of the day, there really is one goal…..

 

InBloom Picks Atlanta as Headquarters

by

InBloom Selects Atlanta as HeadquartersInBloom, a technology based, nonprofit company that is backed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has selected a location in Buckhead as its new headquarters. The new office is located in Piedmont Center on Piedmont Road.

According to the company’s website:

inBloom is dedicated to bringing together the data, content and tools educators need to make personalized learning a reality for every student. To achieve this vision, inBloom:

  • Offers states and districts a secure technology infrastructure to integrate data, services and applications that work together to support personalized learning.
  • Partners with education technology companies, content providers and developers to support the creation of products compatible with this infrastructure.
  • Works with states and districts to help them use this infrastructure to support educators and students.

As I looked into who this company was (I saw the announcement in the Atlanta Business Chronicle) I found a pretty cool video on their site about some of their technology. Nothing like when I went to school!

For those who may be interested, the company website also lists several job openings.

The Buckhead location is in a somewhat spread-out office campus, and  is not close to the Buckhead MARTA station for those employees that might want to use mass transit. However, it’s an easy car ride from Midtown Atlanta and its living and entertainment options for anyone that is relocating to Atlanta to join InBloom.
