Over the weekend, I went to IKEA. Right by it is this renovated area; very beautiful, bourgeoise neighborhood, that according to what I just read in a law journal was a waste dump, site of the former Atlantic Station. It was wonderful upscale living. They have these lofts being built there, and a stream of townhouses, brick style townhomes. I knew right away that I wanted to live there. It had an expansive sidewalk. Lush greenery. Streetlights. Close to a shopping complex. It was pretty. It made me want to live in Atlanta. And if you know me, it is rare, that I want to or find a reason to want to make living here work.
Needless to say, the lofts are pretty, offer wonderful amenities, healthclub, secured covered parking, hardwood flooring inside the lofts. Magnificent!
Only one glitch. They cost 300,000. They are not for rent, they are for SALE. And start at 300,000. So they may end up at 500,000 at this point. It's a pipe dream I know. But I just daydreamed for a millisecond as I drove past that place and studied the floorplans. I daydreamed and it lasted till today.
