Episode of Yo! Did You Know?! speaks of the beloved Greenbriar Mall built in 1965, designed by super famous, local, architect that literally designed the many iconic buildings in Atlanta’s downtown skyline. Before it was a mall, it is discovered that before the location as a shopping mall, it was a golf course (spanning 40 years) and was home to a couple of Atlanta’s most prominent golfers during the 1920s – 1960s. This episode takes a nostalgix stroll down memory lane.
Atlanta, GA’s downtown area has a rich and historic railroad history dating back to the late 1800s. On this 1st episode of YO! Did You Know?! ®, we share, to our fortune, there is one historically preserved section of buildings that tied directly into the railroad system and filmmakers like me absolutely love telling stories inside of it. We’re diving into the fascinating story of Hotel Row on the 200 block of Mitchell Street in downtown Atlanta. From the grandeur of the Atlanta Terminal Station to the last surviving structures that somehow made it through a devastating electrical fire — this history is absolutely WILD!
