Interactive History of Georgia Avenue
This interactive, online narrative designed by Marni Davis, associate professor of history at Georgia State, provides a dynamic history of Georgia Avenue and its Summerhill neighborhood from its founding in the post-Civil War era to the present. Past businesses, civic organizations, and residences are located on current street maps to allow users to glimpse the earlier Black and Jewish communities. Video clips of interviews with former residents, photographs of families and streetscapes, and graphs and charts help to make vivid how the neighborhood, communities and built environments developed and changed throughout the twentieth century and until today.
