Atlanta, day by day
Atlanta burned in 1864 and rebuilt itself as the capital of the New South, the home of Coca-Cola and CNN, and the city where the American civil rights movement was organised. These plans cover the Olympic park block, the Midtown museums and the two streets where Martin Luther King Jr. lived and is buried.
