Candler Park A Neighborhood in Transition, is a documentary produced in 1980 that explores neighborhood change in a downtown Atlanta neighborhood. The film was produced by Robert G. Fishman, Ph.D. who was on the faculty of Georgia State University at the time and the university's Media Department.
Based on research conducted by Dr. Fishman over a 3 year period, the film effectively explores perception of neighborhood change as perceived by representatives of the various segments of the neighborhood population. The film looks at how neighborhood groups create images that sell the idea of community to potential residents. The result of this process is to slowly transform the area.

This is so cool. I am Dirk Botterbusch, the current owner of Candler Park Market. I always wanted to see what Mr. McMichael looked like. I've heard many stories. Hopefully he'd be happy with the state of the store these days. The building is not much to look at anymore (and part of it fell into the storm water pipe that runs underneath the store back in the 90's) but we're trying our best to keep it going and a constructive part of the neighborhood. If anyone has any other pictures or information related to the history of the business district, please let me know.

Mr.McMichael was an important member of the community a very decent man who cared a lot for Candler Park, and while he didn't always appreciate the values of the people moving into the neighborhood, her certainly supported their efforts in revitalizing the community.

Dirk, he was my Grandfather. I had my first job in the butcher shop there. He'd be pleased with what you guys have done with the joint.

I wish they had interviewed me for this video...as a 5 year old kindergarten student (1965), I still remember leaving my class during school time, walking home about 6 long long blocks straight to my home and of course no one knew that I had left the school. When I arrived at home and knocked on my front door, my mother answered and proceeded to "FAINT" when she saw me!!! I recently found the home and the school on the same mission last year. It brought back sooo many memories and great joy to know it's still there and thriving as well :) Mom said she knew at that time that I would most likely raise myself and be very confident in my life's decisions...lol

Robert, thank you for posting this film. what a treasure! My husband and I were newly weds when we renovated 375 Candler Park Drive in 1977. We only lived there a year, but were involved in the neighborhood association and appreciated the neighborliness of our older neighbors on the street. I would love to read your dissertation; is it online anywhere?

not that I am aware of, but it is in the library at Georgia State University. It is called:- Crisis in identity : an urban ethnography of neighborhood revitalization

Very cool. Our family lived with my grandmother on Glendale Ave. just around the corner and we frequented McMichael's. My father grew up in that house on Glendale. My father and I both attended Mary Lin Elementary, and we both had the same 1st and 2nd grade teachers!

Bill Johnson after you attended Mary Lin what middle school and high school did the kids attend in that neighborhood. My grandparents lived on Hooper Avenue my mom went to Mary Lin Elementary. They moved after she got out of Elementary school. I’m just curious to what school did your dad and you attend after Elementary school. I would assume Middle School would have been Inman Middle and Bass High, but I’m not sure.

@@butterflyhippie we moved to Tucker and I then attended Tucker high school. There was no middle school back in the olden days - you did K-7 at one school and then 8-12 in high school

Where Candler Park was 20 years ago, the Historic West End (www.AtlantaWestEnd.com) is today. Seeing the changes take place is amazing. Like Candler Park, the Historic West End has lovely Craftsman Bungalows and excellent public amenities (such as the Beltline.) In contrast to this video’s account of gentrification, however, the Historic West End is notable for its racial balance. Yes, lower-income renters are being displaced, both by higher-income renters and by (lots of) new home buyers. But these incoming professionals are both black and white. So you find lots of IT professionals, academics, and young urban professionals generally, but they come in all colors. (Section 8 rentals, however, are pretty much gone.) Here are a few indicators of change. - There is a new business opportunity in *removing* burglar bars from windows. Crime is way, way down (safer than Midtown?) - There are few neglected houses. On many streets, do-it-yourself homeowners and investors have improved pretty much every house. - School options are growing (improved public schools, charter schools, and home-schooling groups.) Intown Atlanta is improving a lot these days. Candler Park changed decades ago, and the Historic West End is changing today.

This is so funny to me because they said the investors buy the houses and shoot the prices up and people walk away from the table with 40 to 50 for the houses in Candler Park back then. Well now the prices over there is 300,000 and higher. 300,000 is a small itty bitty house in that neighborhood. These people on this video probably would be 😮 😯 😳 shocked.

***** Back then it was probably called McMichael's, owned by the man of the same name who lived on McClendon Ave. I remember buying candy from that store as a kid before the Lee's bought it and built it up to eventually sell it as. I remember thinking how strange it was to see the Lee's oldest son beginning to offer specialty wines and beers. Ha! I remember when you could still buy a pickled pig's foot at the front counter! I haven't watched this video yet...a friend just shared it with me. And I just shared it with a bunch of the kids who grew up in 30307. Thanks Robert Fishman for making this documentary. I have been told that my father, Rocke Thompson, is interviewed at our house on Almeta Ave. I'm going to watch it tonight.

He was my Grandfather - S.F. McMichael. They lived on Clifton Terrace. He refused to sell beer or wine until right before he retired and sold it.
