Why punish the neighborhood when their real beef was with the city of Atlanta, which didn't want to work with them. If the city could just work to improve the traffic flow and somehow make the area more pedestrian friendly, then things could improve. But I don't see that happening.

The Varsity Jr owners are now going to punish the neighborhood with a 5 story self storage since the neighborhood NPU fought them when they wanted to redo the Varsity Jr and keep the same number of curb cuts.

The vacant building is still sitting there, corroding. The same thing is happening with The Varsity. So these places close and then nothing gets done for years and years? Is anyone responsible for fixing up this area or is it beyond repair??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-24149169472249978472014-11-12T20:52:43.261-05:002014-11-12T20:52:43.261-05:00I second the traffic issues with this area.

La Vista also served as a direct route to the Lindbergh/Peachtree area.<br /><br />Since the new traffic lights were installed, I've avoided the area completely. Opting for a Morningside or N.D.H. route just to avoid the intersection. By changing my driving habits, I hope I've helped calm traffic in that area.

There's too much traffic and people are just sitting at the light at LaVista and Cheshire Bridge for 10 minutes. People are not going to go shopping anywhere near there because of traffic issues and the DOT has not made any effort at all to alleviate the problem. First you had the gourmet institution on Cheshire Bridge called Happy Hermann's close a few years back. Then the Varsity closed. Also the BBQ restaurant behind the CVS closed. All because of traffic issues. Does this even register with the idiots at Atlanta DOT? Truly sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
