About Atlanta's East Lake

It's that time again for the most popular event in Atlanta's East Lake community!

Beginning today, the PGA Tour by CocaCola will take place at the East Lake Goft Club, located in the City of Atlanta, DeKalb County and the East Lake Community.

The international media spotlight will be on our community, with coverage on ESPN and ABC Sports. Approximately 100,000 spectators plan to attend over the next few days and it is estimated that 20 to 25 percent will be from out of town.

The purse is quite large this year, but the real winners are the local businesses and charities. Atlanta charities have received more than $11M from tournament proceeds since the Tour started coming to the East Lake Golf Club.

IF YOU ARE ATTENDING THIS YEAR:

** Cell phones and PDAs are allowed for the first time

** Be prepared to walk or pay $15 to $50 to park

(many of the neighbors along Alston Drive will be offering parking and will have golf carts to take you to the tournament, but you need to get there early!)

Never lost; but FOUND, we were!!!

I received an e-mail from a Realtor. It read . . .

"Hi there,

I have a listing located at 1368 Ormewood Ave, Atlanta, Ga 30316. Beautiful down-to-the-studs renovation. We have had fabulous showings but not offers! We've been the bridesmaid to two other homes that were picked (funnily enough they were staged).

My sellers and I would like to look into staging. Is this something you can talk to me about?

I e-mailed back . . .

"It would be a pleasure to stage that home! I have staged several in East Atlanta. I currently have one staged right around the corner. It's under contract -- went under contract first day on the market. It’s a beautiful rebuild -- Here’s some before and after photos.

Within minutes, my phone rang. What I heard on the other line was this joyous Realtor saying, "I found you! I found you. This is the house that made my listing a bridesmaid for the second time! You staged the other one, too!"

So, once found, and two days later we were outfitting the bridemaid to be an eye-catching bride. She hasn't walked down the aisle yet, but here's a sneak peak straight out from behind the dressing room door! :-)

East Lake is an area of Atlanta, considered intown, rich in history and fine homes. Built in the early 1900's, the East Lake Golf Club, a course Bobby Jones grew up playing on, has played host to the best golfers and famous tournaments over the years. An elite neighborhood of homes sprung up around the course that housed many of Atlanta's socialites.

Today, with the regentrification of urban neighborhoods, East Lake has again become one of "the" areas to live, work, and play in Atlanta.

Many of the old historic homes have been renovated and there have been some tear downs replaced by new construction.
