Over the past few months, architecture firm Lord Aeck Sargent, with the input of people from Eastside Trail
neighborhoods, has been crafting a masterplan for the redevelopment of massive Hulsey Yard.

This isn't it.

In May, the 70-acre railroad depot was cleared of its freight cars, prompting residents of Old Fourth Ward,
Inman Park, Cabbagetown, and Reynoldstown to enlist the Atlanta-based architecture firm to create a (very)
tentative vision for the site’s potential redevelopment.

While neighborhood leaders pour tens of thousands of dollars into expert redesigns, other locals have taken
it upon themselves to concoct a blueprint for the property, which, interestingly enough, is still not for sale.

Robert White, an intown interior designer with Reiner-White Design, this week sent Curbed Atlanta drawings
that outline a dream for the mammoth rail car depot.
