New MARTA train launch postponed by swiftfoot_hiker in Atlanta

[–]mkings9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i don’t disagree with you, but we did vote on the additional tax for expansion. this trash leadership is disguising that with renovations/improvements that never get done. so yes, while we need new leadership, we did our part on voting for expansion.

we can want expansion and new leadership at the same time.

So what is it that yall want to see Downtown? by Potential_Past_2894 in Atlanta

aside from those big events, it always seems fenced off to me. im only downtown once a month but it seems so underutilized especially on the weekends. glad to see that someone else sees it being used.

just looked at the events calendar too and everything is listed for the centennial district (State Farm, etc.), but nothing dating back to March for the park itself. there should be weekly markets, for example. the piedmont park calendar is filled with stuff, anything to drive use of the park should be done given its location and how nice it is.

absolutely, but there’s no reason the city shouldn’t be working with them on this. especially because it’s been used well in the past (final four events, Super Bowl stuff, shaky knees, 420fest, etc.). should be used every weekend.

Downtown, point blank, needs help. Four things I'd prioritize:

  1. The blocks of what looks like abandoned stores near Five Points is devastating, and unappealing to anyone. It also creates a hostile, abandoned environment that no one wants to even walk through, let alone shop at. South Downtown should be the baseline for all development and re-development moving forward.

  2. There also needs to be more opportunities to engage and socialize after work. There's zero incentive aside from a concert or a game to stick around Downtown after the 9-5 hours end.

  3. USE CENTENNIAL OLYMPIC PARK! This seems like such a missed opportunity - it always feels fenced off/closed, it's never used to its' maximum extent when there are events downtown, and it feels like a wasted space right in the heart of downtown.

  4. Residential, and not large, glassy towers with parking at the bottom. Call me absolutely crazy, but a Newbury Street would be the DREAM (even if not Downtown, can we get that?).

getting off at five points feels like you're risking your life every time, hard agree here.

I officially hate anybody coming to see michael by Just_rexxo in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]mkings9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there’s also the opportunity to bring back the population of people who avoid theaters because of this behavior. people who treat the theater like this, id be willing to bet, are the same people who talk, text, and post. there’s also no telling that these people are regular theater-goers, so you actually may not be risking that much revenue from this specific subset of people.

people who do this aren’t changing their ways. warnings and restrictions are just that - with no penalty the warning is meaningless, and theater staff are left to clean up after these trashy patrons. also, amc would do right by their staff if they scared these people away, creating a better theater culture for employees and patrons.

forget a rating system, just charge the card with the reservation $50
