I grew up on the Westside in the hoods. Going down to the O4W in the 80s / 90s felt like a different world. In 04W, it was 🥷 standing outside on the blocks of the whole Edgewood, Auburn Ave, Boulevard. We used to say that was the one part of Atlanta that reminded us of NY hoods where folks be all out on the blocks in front of the stores / apts. ON THE westside, including streets like Bankhead or Campbelton, most folks were outside inside the apts / PJs and you’d see a few people on the sidewalks on the main streets. But Edgewood and Auburn was ninjas out down the whole street!
I grew up over there 78 til 98 4 fingers no thumb
