Aye men to Kirkwood being a breeding ground of social-economic diversity in a gentrifying Atlanta neighborhood! I have neighbors that are a retied GSU professor and Fulton County employee that have lived in the same houses for forty years. They like the changes going on and feel like its not pushing them out of the area. Most residents embrace diversity and do not want to end up like a Virginia-Highlands or Candler Park.

This is an initial line of a future streetcar network that the city has already committed millions to do studies on future lines so they can qualify for federal funds. There are necessary steps for projects to receive federal funds and I'm sure the downtown streetcar had its studies done so it could get TIGER 2 funds.
