SUMMARY:Walks with Resident Experts 003: Trains\, with Angel Poventud
DESCRIPTION:THE WALK\nGiant metal boxes floating past. Epic rattles and thuds. Inexplicable sudden vacancies. Hulsey Yard makes for an occasionally unsettling yet nearly invisible neighbor. Longtime Reynoldstonians still call it ‘the piggyback yard\,’ from the Yard’s core function: stacking up shipping containers to ride or to rest piggyback- style. But it’s also fair to say that without Hulsey and its predecessors\, Reynoldstown would exist in nothing like our current form. A century and a half ago\, the core of our community sprung up around this junction of tracks\, switches\, and sidings. Today we’re still shaped by it. And tomorrow? Maybe its most interesting chapter yet. Peek behind the chain link curtain\, at a world (and a law) unto itself. \n\nTHE EXPERT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow does Angel Poventud roll? Over the last twenty years\, for a major railroad which shall remain nameless\, as a Freight Train Engineer. As a bike advocate\, cheerleading the hundreds of bikers who make up the monthly Critical Mass. As one of the earliest and most visible Beltline Boosters\, leading monthly tours from way back in 2009. As a beloved and radical faerie\, rollerblading in his green dress through countless Pride events. And lately\, as the best product spokesperson the all-electric Rivian Trucks ever had. Angel Poventud is forward momentum; riding along with him is a blast. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHAT PEOPLE SAY\n“Angel is simply iconic. Could you make him up? Good news\, Atlanta: we don’t have to. \nCan you slow his roll? Don’t even try.”

SUMMARY:Walks with Resident Experts 002: Spring\, with Cooper Sanchez
DESCRIPTION:THE WALK\n‘Spring is sprung\, The grass is riz. I wonder where The birdies iz.’ \n– Anonymous \nWhen we grew our own food\, when daylight was the only light we had\, our sense of spring was sharper. Our lives depended on our awareness of the seasons\, and none brought greater joy than spring. Smell of the soil. Length of the days. Now\, as modern urban dwellers\, what does spring even mean? The season of washing pollen off our cars? Cardigans? Claritin? \nAnd yet — \nReynoldstown has its own bunnies and buds\, birds and bees. Miracles are afoot. Pulsing through the sidewalk cracks\, the vernal insists upon itself. The signs are all around. \nWe just need reminding. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE EXPERT\nAs a lead gardener at Atlanta’s iconic Oakland Cemetery\, and the creator/curator of their wildly popular ‘Ilumine’ series\, Cooper Sanchez artfully shapes the natural world.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA native Georgian\, Cooper trained (and still works) as a visual artist. His recent documentary film ‘The Well-Placed Weed\,’ about his mentor\, legendary Atlanta plantsman Ryan Gainey\, found acclaim at film festivals and on public broadcasting. He is also the garden designer for Decatur’s spectacular Cator Woolford Estate. Whether wielding a camera\, paintbrush\, or shovel\, Cooper brings a fine eye and a refined sense of the natural world to his every pursuit. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHAT PEOPLE SAY\n‘Want to love nature more? See it through Cooper’s finely-tuned eye. He makes garden spaces sing\, and captures their fleeting beauty in paintings that glow.’

SUMMARY:Walks With Resident Experts 001: The Built Environment\, Christopher Leerssen
DESCRIPTION:THE WALK\n‘We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us.’ \n– Winston Churchill \nOur built environment results from hundreds of strictures\, laws\, aspirations\, common practices\, and complicated systems. At the deepest level\, these all express a set of values\, a system of beliefs made three-dimensional. Everyone deserves sunlight. Sidewalks matter. Moving through the city should be safe. From the radius of a curb and the depth of a setback\, to door heights and tree canopy\, this ‘real-world matrix’ is hiding in plain sight. \nHowever: \nOver time\, our shared beliefs shift. They come into conflict. They’re skewed by economics. Within just a few short blocks\, Christopher tells a complex story – of what we’ve built\, and of who we are. \n\n\n\n\n\nTHE EXPERT\nA Reynoldstonian for over two decades\, a gifted architect and prolific builder\, Christopher Leerssen has also headed up the neighborhood zoning committee\, and served many terms on the RCIL Board. His two small-scale developments – Mattie Branch and R-town Lane – are models of sensitive and attuned intervention. Christopher lives right here in Reynoldstown\, amidst dozens of homes he’s built\, renovated\, and/or designed\, and where he and his wife Christina have raised three proud young Reynoldstonians. From zoning and building codes\, to infrastructure and architecture\, he knows Reynoldstown up one side and down the other. \n\n\n\n\n\nWHAT PEOPLE SAY\n“If every neighborhood had a builder/neighbor as thoughtful and humane as Christopher\, the world would be a better place.”
