Solid burgers and wings, great beers, good service were always what we got. I did notice a decline in cleanliness and service around the time I moved away several years ago, but it was still popular. This area has always had a problem with petty theft, car break-ins, etc but the violent crime surge and incompetence of the city to manage it is what did it in. It is unfortunate to see such a quick decline in what was a great developing area.

It feels like Taco Mac took a parting shot on the way out. I think the new developer will bring new and exciting life to the property.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-5303857633683347422021-08-19T21:36:58.348-04:002021-08-19T21:36:58.348-04:00It is really sad what has happened to Buckhead and...It is really sad what has happened to Buckhead and the Lindbergh area. I have never liked the Lindbergh development around Marta. I always found the parking deck to be a hassle and would typically only go to the restaurants if I was taking Marta vs driving. Now I only go to Buckhead to work and hope my car is safe during the day. I don't shop or dine there anymore....sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-7108886828548509392021-08-19T19:48:29.866-04:002021-08-19T19:48:29.866-04:00Crime is not unique to Buckhead over the past year...Crime is not unique to Buckhead over the past year. In the aftermath of the pandemic and the economic depression, crime has exploded around the country, Chicago, Miami, New York, Portland. Perhaps if we ever get people to ignore the misinformation campaign from Republicans and FOX about the vaccines and get to the other side of the pandemic, things will calm down. But the Buckhead crime situation is out of control. Perhaps we need to look at some form of gun control. That will never happen with Republicans in charge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-46055759808856743372021-08-19T19:42:16.538-04:002021-08-19T19:42:16.538-04:00This area has been trending downhill for a long ti...This area has been trending downhill for a long time. People will not pay to park in the Garson and other garages. To ask people to get a ticket, have to validate it or to pay for parking doesn't work. Especially when those parking machines don't work half the time. The pandemic and economic downtown are a body blow to the area. With so many people using MARTA around there and living there, you'd figure there would have been a way to make it work. In 2007, the AJC wrote a huge article about the transit oriented development there. But due to the incompetence of the city/MARTA/parking companies, the area never took off. It's sad with so many high income earners around there looking for something to do and willing to spend moneyMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00114031098673981688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-23563401443746165532021-08-19T17:01:21.896-04:002021-08-19T17:01:21.896-04:00Not surprising.

Shootings, arsons, car break-ins have been non-stop. I moved to the area in 2007 and have seen that entire development fall into disrepair while places like Five Guys, Chilis and Urban Flats fled. It's time for some serious action to prevent further loss of businesses and decreased property values. This is not a political issue - everyone is suffering and the City needs to step up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-11125691973105508082021-08-19T13:47:50.155-04:002021-08-19T13:47:50.155-04:00That location has sucked for a long time.
