The city's purging of unsavory or difficult properties from its books will continue with the abandoned former Atlanta Constitution building in South Downtown, Creative Loafing reports. The mayor reportedly wants to spend $300,000 to spiffy up the rare, multi-story art moderne property for its debut on the open market, echoing plans for the Civic Center and Underground Atlanta. Let's hope prospective buyers have other historic rescues (Ponce, Krog, Olympia, etc.) in mind and keep the wrecking balls at bay, if that's a viable option. [CL]
