From Wikipedia:
East Atlanta is a neighborhood on the east side of Atlanta, Georgia, United States The name East Atlanta Village primarily refers to the neighborhood's commercial district.
In 2005 East Atlanta acquired a new library building which is located at the corner of Flat Shoals and McPherson. That same year, the first phase of a public works project to enhance the pedestrian environment in the business district occurred. The result was much wider sidewalks and benches to sit on. In 2007 and 2008, the East Atlanta Village was voted "Best Neighborhood" in the city by readers of the Atlanta weekly newspaper Creative Loafing. Due to determined efforts by residents to improve their neighborhood and demand for affordable in-town housing, the average price of a house in East Atlanta has risen steadily since the late 1990s.
In 2017 the East Atlanta Community Association began efforts to include the neighborhood on the National Register of Historic Places.
In recent decades, East Atlanta has seen a rise of street art. Many of East Atlanta's murals were brought to the neighborhood by Living Walls and the Outerspace Project. Some of East Atlanta's murals are easily visible from the street, but an equal number of murals are hidden in back parking lots, alleyways and behind buildings. Images and locations of East Atlanta's murals are found on the Atlanta Street Art Map.
East Atlanta hosts a number of popular annual events, including:
East Atlanta Strut - East Atlanta's free annual one day neighborhood festival, always on the third Saturday in September featuring a parade, food, live music, art, and events.

What was the purpose of this? You didn’t show all the streets in EAV. You came back up Flat Shoals from the split from Bouldercrest Dr?
Is there a video of you driving through the south side of Atlanta? I would love to see that one in my area
I didn’t get to the south side on that latest trip but I’ll eventually cover it on a later trip to Atlanta.
Not even 1 min in the video already see 12
Grew up in East Atl
Okay do one with all the centers of the midtown neighborhoods, like start from Piedmont PArk, go to Va Highlands, Lil 5 points, Inman Park and East Atlanta, in ONE video, so I can show my friend. Don't make it too long. THanks!
