A Georgia Man Built Himself A Stone Castle In The Middle Of Atlanta More Than A Century Ago

Cannon mouths poke out of a granite wall on a busy city street, and the man who put them there wanted roses growing from them. I love that detail more than I probably should. The builder was a wealthy inventor and farm supplier who called his retirement home Fort Peace. He designed it as half ship and half fortress.

Shiloh draws huge state test in reigning state champion Creekside

In its return to the state football playoffs, Shiloh faces a tall task in Round 1. The Generals travel Friday night to play at Creekside, last year’s Class AAAA state champion after a 15-0 season. The Seminoles, who haven’t lost to a Georgia team since falling to Marist in the 2024 state semifinals, are 9-1 this season after reeling off nine straight wins since a season-opening loss to Clay-Chalkville (Ala.). Quarterback Savoy Nichols, a 6-foot-6, 205-pound dual threat, leads a balanced Creekside offense with 2,061 passing yards and 26 touchdowns. The Tarleton State (Texas) commit is joined in the backfield by several playmakers led by Clemson commit Gary Walker (927 rushing yards, 15 TDs) and Branden Wiley (580 rushing yards, 12 TDs). Five Creekside receivers have at least four TD catches, including Boston College commit Armani Hill (19-478-7). Other standouts on the loaded Creekside roster include Alabama commit Darrius White and Tennessee commit Carter Jamison at defensive back, Auburn commit Jaylon Moore (6-foot-4, 290 pounds) at offensive line and Colorado commit Kenny Fairley at defensive line. A run-heavy Shiloh offense must find a way to crack a talented defense. The unit leans heavily on its line and senior running back

Stockbridge seeks safeguards for Tranquil Trail neighbors

STOCKBRIDGE — Concerns surrounding the Tranquil Trail apartment development resurfaced Monday as Stockbridge City Council approved a list of requested changes aimed at addressing neighboring residents' complaints. Stockbridge City Council voted 4-1 to approve a list of requested changes it plans to negotiate with the project's developer. District 1 Council member LaKeisha Gantt made the motion, which was seconded by District 3 Council memer Kyle Berry. Gantt recognized the residents’ voice during the council’s discussion. “There have been numerous emails. We've had a town hall,” Gantt said. “We've had the community come out. They came out today, and they've had comment after comment and they made it very clear. They say we hear them, but we're not taking action on or that they want some type of action to take place.” The motion included six requests: — Add a fence along the rear property lines before residents move in. — Install double rows of evergreen trees at least 15-feet tall. — Shield outdoor lighting and direct it away from neighboring homes. — Limit construction to clearly defined daytime hours with enforceable penalties. — Move the dumpster to the front of the site, away from neighboring homes. — Require all future

TSA likely here to stay at ATL airport after studying privatization

After a government shutdown left airport security workers without pay and passengers snaking through the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport this spring, no changes are expected to the security process. On Monday, Atlanta City Councilmember Byron Amos announced the conclusion of a TSA privatization feasibility study conducted at the airport after calls for changes in May. Transportation employees were left unpaid for more than a month after the federal government shut down in the middle of February. The employees started to call out of work or simply not show up by the second week, and passengers still hoping to reach their destination spent hours in line for security stations run with skeleton crews. Eventually in some airports, like Hartsfield-Jackson , Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were called in to man the security lines and to get the process moving at a quicker pace. The government reopened at the end of March, and TSA employees received back pay before returning to work. But, the shutdown sparked a national conversation about the privatization of airport security, and Atlanta was no different. City Council 'fully supports' study findings In May, the Atlanta City Council voted 11-1 to request the Department of Aviation commission a

John Knight: Build Smarter, Not Bigger

A smaller house doesn’t always make a more appealing home. In the rural markets Chisel Mill Homes serves, buyers may be willing to trade square footage for acreage, room for an RV and the freedom to make a property their own. That insight has shaped how the South Metro Atlanta builder approaches affordability and finds opportunities beyond traditional new home communities.
