Part podcast, exhibit, and old-school mixtape, Tales of Downtown Atlanta is a collection of short stories written, voiced and visually amplified by notable Atlantans.

Downtown Atlanta is doing it again. Resurging...

Fresh beginnings are rising from storied roots. Business and culture are playing new tunes. Development is forging unprecedented ground. And neighborhoods are going green …er.

Indeed, the heart of the city is shedding its skin and making its mark for a new generation.
