MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD

Several weeks ago Mrs. Charles W. Heeden of Lithonia
(telephone 482-6149) called me concerning her property at 512-14
Decatur St., S. E. This property was under Housing Code
proceedings several years ago, together with other properties in
the same block on either side of the Heeden property.

As a result of the Housing Code procedures and my personal
efforts at that time to enforce the Code, the Heeden's removed
the top floor (residential) of the building at 512-14 Decatur
St., S. E. and remodeled the ground floor for business at a
cost of approximately $12,000,

I informed Mrs. Heeden that I was no longer directly
involved in Code Enforcement and referred her to Mr. James A.
Smith, Chief of the Housing Code Division.

This date, Mrs. Heeden called me again and read to me a
recent Court Order (copy attached) pertaining to the properties
adjacent to hers and informed me that her Insurance Company has
cancelled her insurance on the property at 512-14 Decatur St. and
that she cannot get insurance with any other company because of
the fire hazard caused by the adjacent properties.

Mrs. Heeden specifically requested that I bring this matter
to the attention of the Mayor; that she complied with the City's
request to improve the property at 512-14 Decatur St. and that the
owners of the adjacent properties (which were in worse condition
than hers) have done nothing and that she is now the victim of
circumstances by damage being caused by these adjacent properties.

This is a case of long standing. Housing Code violations

on these properties were reported and corrective action initialed
in 1961, ‘63 and ‘64. The attached Court Order pertains to the

 
Page 2
June 3, 1968
Memorandum For Record

following properties:

609 Memorial Drive, 8.E.

615 Memorial Drive, 8S. E.
510 Decatur Street, S. E.
516 Decatur Street, 8. E.
530 Decatur Street, S. E.

This case is making a mockery of the Housing Code and
"In Rem" Ordinance of the City of Atlanta. I was personally
involved in enforcement procedures against these properties,
as Director of Urban Rewewal, during the period of 1961-64.
Subsequently, as Supervisor of Inspection Services in the
Bullding Department, I discussed this case at length personally
with Judge Whitman of the Fulton County Superior Court and with
Mr. Robert H. Cleveland, receiver for the executors of the
Estate of Mrs. E. C. Johnson, deceased.

I recommend that these properties be personally inspected
by any one involved with this case and that the best legal

talent available be utilized in an all out effort to resolve
this case in behalf of the City.

Housing Coordinator

In additi on, 658 units have been leased for P.Ho and leasing of 372 additional units for P.H. is being negotiated.




Als o 13,983 units have been reported ~y the Housing Code Division as repaired (rehabilitated). However, those figures include un i ~

NOTES

L,022 units proposed did not materialize, of which 8,056 were shown in the previous report of Jan. 15, 1968 and 2,966 additional I
units are listed in this report, as Lost. (The majority of these losses were due to disapprovals of sites and proposed rezoning.) I

Proposed locations for low-cost housing are coordinated through the Planning Dept., for adequacy of Community Facilities, existing Hy
or prosposed. Proposals are also reviewed periodically with the School Dept. for adequacy of school facilities. .
An engineering firm from Savannah, McNamara &amp; Associates, Consulting Engineers, has recently made presentations in Atlanta of a
"patent applied for" low-cost housing method of construction with flexible design, which is claimed can be constructed quickly on
site, employing mostly untrained labor and at a savings of 10%-15% under conventional construction. This firm established :
connections with a reputable construction firm in Atlanta and a local architect. This team is anxious to acquire a 10 acre tract
in the Model Cities area to construct an experimental Housing project.

The Travelers Insurance Company has agreed to finance 70 or more new single family low-cost houses in the Thomasville Urban Renewal
project area under the FHA 221 D (2) insured mortgage program. Equitable has made $1,000,000 available to Atlanta Mortgage Brokeragé«

Co. for financing low-cost homes at favorable rates.

In view of difficulties encountered in zoning and getting other approvals on sites proposed for large multi-family developments,
it is apparent that the Low-income Housing Program will have to lean heavily on Developers and Builders providing a substantial
portion of the requirements on small scattered sites, with or without Federal assistance.

No proposal had yet been made for construction of units (even efficiency or 1 bedroom) to rent or sell for as low as $50 per month,
although the London Towne Houses, a 221 d (3) co-op development now under construction, is pushing this close, with its one
bedroom unit advertised to sell for $59 per month. The City's greatest need is in the $30-$50 per month rental-purchase range.

 

 

Richard L. Fullerton Associates has proposed a fibre glass "manufactured" patented process, 3 bedroom and bath house. (900 sq. ft.
&amp; car port) with w-to-w carpeting and air conditioning, which he claims can sell for $9,000-$9,500, including land estimated to |

cost $1,500.
National Homes Corp. of Lafayette, Inc. placed on the market Fab. 1, 1967 a 800--900 S.F. (0.S. dimensions) 3 bedrooms, prefabricated

preassembled panel, single family house plus a 96 S.F. (I.S. dimensions) storage building manufactured by Arrow Metal Products Corp. ,|
to sell under FHA 221 d (2). Price includes plumbing, electrical, heating units, stove &amp; refrigerator. Houses can be completely
assembled in 85 man hours; 72 of these (with conventional plumbing) are being erected (pre-sold) in the Thomasville Urban Renewal
Area. Approx. 800 sq. ft. house is priced at $11,200; 900 sq. ft. house is priced at $11,600. Adrian Homes Cor. has proposed a
prefab to retail for about $7,500 plus land, foundation, closing and possible tapping fees. Other prefab distributors and convent- |
ional builders have interesting potential houses to offer but, because of fear of local Codes difficulties, are not producing single
family houses in Atlanta to sell in the $10,000-$12,500 range for which there is a strong demand and market. Perhaps the greatest
difficulty is availability of suitably priced land within the City Limits. Economics for this price range sales housing require

land which will not cost the developer more than $1500.per unit. (A 5,000 sq. ft. lot is considered ample for this type house.)

Ralph L. Dickey of Atlanta has proposed a non-profit revolving fund enterprise to acquire substandard housing; renovate it and resell
primarily through private enterprise. CACUR recently formed a non-profit corporation to rehabilitate exisint units under 221 (h)..
Morris Brown College is another such sponsor. North West Community Forum has also filed applications for « 4 projects under 221 (h).

MEMORANDUM

To: Mr. J. C. Johnson
Director of Model Cities

Pursuant to our discussion yesterday, this is to advise you that
in a report which I am now preparing to Mr. Dan E. Sweat, Jr.,
Director of Governmental Liaison, pertaining to Experimental
Housing Survey, I am proposing (1) that approximately a four
block area (about 10 acres) centered generally on the intersection
of Connally Place and Crumley Street, S. E. or (2) a similar size
area centered on the intersection of Reed Street and Love Street,
S. E. be designated for experimental housing and that request be
initiated promptly to HUD for authority to acquire such tract for
this purpose as soon as possible, under appropriate procedures,

Both of these tracts have been discussed with Mr. Sweat and
Mr. Jim Wright of your office.

Mr. Howard Openshaw
Director of Redevelopment
Atlanta Housing Authority
824 Hurt Building
Atlanta, Georgia
30303
Dear Mr. Openshaw:
This is with reference to your letter of June 4, 1968
outlining several objections to our plans for the development of Parcels E-la and B-2. As I understand it, these
objections represent the position both of your office and
that of the City Planning Commission.
I should like to take exception, first, to the second
paragraph of your letter, which states in part that, "While
certain elements of the original plan have been retained ....
other features on which the development competition award
was made have been eliminated, reducing the original extraordinary site plan proposal to the average run-of-the-mill
development." That statement is unjustified as to the facts,
and, if it is an expression of aesthetic judgement, not one
with which we agree or respect.
I
I
I
Second, I should like to point out that your action in
advising the Federal Housing Administration that our plans
were not acceptable has resulted in their refusal t6 issue
ready-to-go commitments. This may mean the loss, to . us and
. to the City of Atlanta, of the 22l(d)(3) reservations for
this project and, if 22l(d)(3) money is, as we are advised,
exhausted, it may be some time before new reservations are
obtained if we lose these.
A far more advisable course for you to have followed
(in terms of safeguarding the 22l(d)(3) reservations for
this project) would have been to permit FHA to issue their
commitments and in the period preceeding initial mortgage
closing, work with us to achieve that which you feel is
necessary. Your control of our going and our coming is
so complete in every respect that with or without the
commitment we cannot proceed into construction until you

are completely satisfied with our work. You chose, however,
to pursue a course which places the project's development
in . jeopardy .... a needless and disheartening risk and delay.
i
J
Third, I should like to point out that we are no less
interested than are you or any other City Agency concerned
with this project, · in producing as superior a development as
possible.· Our competition submission was not a pipe dream nor
did we approach it on the basis of winning a beauty contest
thinking to make it work later, as is often the case.
I would
imagine that we will be with this project long after most of
the City officials concerned with it now have left the scene
and its success, both as an investment and in the achievement
of our social objectives, depends entirely upon its desirability
to potential tenants.
It was recognized publicly, by you and by us during the
course of the competition, that detailed planning, architecture
and fiscal analysis would require certain changes, but that
the major concepts presented would be preserved. We have
!
acted in . good faith in pursuing our work and those changes which
I
have been made, in practically every single, instance of concern
to you, have related to four major factors:
'
A.
The severe cost restrictions governing the 22l(d)(3)
program which have become even more severe over this
past year by virtue of the money market and tremendous
increases in construction costs.
B.
Detailed cost analysis of certain of our original
development proposals (such as rental town housing
in Parcel E-la and elements of site development)
have proved to be economically infeasible in terms
of their effect upon rentals.
C.
The need to provide the full number of units
originally proposed when certain areas, upon
detailed site planning, proved to be economically
infeasible for development or, proved to contain
conditions of which we were not advised
(such
as County ownership of certain lands within the
proje c t area) •

D.
The rentals and carrying charges which the housing
market with which we are concerned can absorb.
Lastly, _ I should like to point out that most of those
elements of our work which you now question ·; have been known
to your office and to the City Planning Commission for several
months.
It is baffling, to say the least, that at this late
and critical date you choose to present your comments.
Now, as to the substance of your letter, I shouH like
to make the following brief observations which will be enforced
by oral argument and graphic material presented at our meeting
on June 11, 1968.
I
• I
· J
I
As to your item (a), we do not agree that the geometric
arrangement of buildings does not provide interesting and
varied pedestrian spaces. The changes we have made in
Parcel E-la with regard to buildings placement are not major.
If you are making an aesthetic judgement, we agree that the
original concept is better, but not that our revision does
it great violence. Additionally, some study of our building
placement would have indicated the extreme topographic conditions which account for many of our shifts in building
_.location, conditions we originally felt able to resolve, but
in the face of economics, could not.
In this regard, I sh9uld
point out that retaining walls were the first to go when the
dollar situation became extreme and this fact mandated a shift
in building, parking and driveway location .

As to your item (b), rental townhouses in Parcel E-la were '
eliminated solely for reasons of economy and FHA guidance here _:
was quite convincing. They proved too costly to build and
could not be absorbed by the rental market with which we
are concerned . Eliminating townhouses eliminated the structured
and disciplined flow of pedestrian traffic, but that function
can be provided by strong and adequately designed pedestr i an
pathways .

The original competition drawing did in fact show
townhouses step up or down the grades.
It was later
recommended by your office and concurred in by us, that
the B-2 site be converted to all co-op townhouses which
more fully and economically served the market for townhouse
occupancy.
In addition, FHA requirements regarding percentage of grade around the E-la townhouses parking ·lots
which served these steep townhouse had severe cost implications.
Also, the cost of producing such a steep townhouse
proved to be so high as to approach or exceed the maximum
rentals under the 22l(d)(3) program as follows:

As to your item (c), we agree that the community plaza
. was a major and highly desirable element of our original
proposal. We eliminated it and distributed the functions
elsewhere throughout the project in that a part of Parcel
E-lb and all of E-lc cannot now be developed for housing due
to certain facts not brought to our attention during the
competition. We, therefore, sought to recapture some of the
lost units by placing them on the community plaza site.
However, we are quite willing to eliminate that housing and
to reinstate the original community plaza proposal, but you
must recognize that this will mean a net loss of approximately
40 dwelling units.

Additionally, it should be noted here that the new
centrally located community recreation area was not only
approved by the Planning Commission and the full Board of
Aldermen in our Community Unit Plan submission, but was also
approved by the Atlanta Housing Authority.

new church site location plan was forwarded to both the
Housing Authority and Collier Gladdin's office on April
22, 1968 and no objection was raised at that time.
As to your item (d), changes in relationship of peripheral
drives and parking areas to the housing units they serve, were
made necessary by detailed studies which could not have been
performed during the competition and by other changes such
as building location and elimination of retaining walls.
However, not by any stretch of the imagination can we understand the charge that the basic concept and relationship of
driveways and parking to housing units served, has been violated.
As to the statement that a massive "sea of asphalt" parking
area, remote from housing units is created, we point out that
this is not the fact except perhaps in one instance.
Even
though the number of parking spaces has been increased to serve
a larger number of housing units the parking solution in our
proposal is superior to the original in many instances and in
fact results in eliminating seas-of-parking. The statment that ,·
parking areas are remote from housing units is absolutely
unfounded.
Except in two instances they are all in the same
relationship as originally proposed and improved in many
instances -- at FHA insistence.
I '
As to your item (e), the concept of uninterrupted pedestrian streets is maintained.
As a matter of fact, it is
improved in both -Parcels E-la and B-2.
Site plans showing
the use of this particular street has been in jour possession
since March.
As a matter of fact, its utilization resulted
as much from your suggestion that it be used and dedicated
to the City so that approximately $30,000 in site improvement
credits would accrue to the City, as it did from our desire to
eliminate the cost of constructing additional roadway.
'I
'l

·
' '.
',
As to your item (f), the pedestrian and vehicular traffic
between Parcels B-2 and E- la will provide for controlled
street crossing as originally proposed.

As to your i _tem (g) , we have rethought the placement of
church sites within building clusters in view of our meetings
with church groups which established that the churches will
attract members both from within and without the project area. ·
·To place churches within the clustered areas would be to introduce large amounts of parking which we consider undesirable.
As to your item (h), ·the geometric arrangement of Parcel
B-2 not only does relate to topography, it is governed by
topography. We do propose a cluster arrangement of buildings
with much of the site open and existing ttees preserved.
The statement that the entire site is covered with buildings
and parking areas is completely unsupported by the facts
and rather contentious. Coverage is approximately 20% for
all buildings, roads and parking areas. The original plan
proposed 331 dwelling units and 450 parking spaces. The present
one proposes 250 dwelling units and 375 parking spaces -on the same acreage.

CEREX ATLANTA CORPORATION
June 10, 1968

Mr. Howard Openshaw
Director of Redevelopment
Atlanta Housing Authority
824 Hurt Building
Atlanta, Georgia 30303

’ Dear Mr. Openshaw:

This is with reference to your letter of June 4, 1968
outlining several objections to our plans for the develop-
ment of Parcels E-la and B-2. As I understand it, these
objections represent the position both of your office and
that of the City Planning Commission.

I should like to take exception, first, to the second
Paragraph of your letter, which states in part that, "While
certain elements of the original plan have been retained....
other features on which the development competition award
was made have been eliminated, reducing the original extra-
ordinary site plan proposal to the average run-of-the-mill
development." That statement is unjustified as to the facts,
and, if it is an expression of aesthetic judgement, not one
with which we agree or respect.

Second, I should like to point out that your action in
advising the Federal Housing Administration that our plans
were not acceptable has resulted in their refusal to issue
ready-to-go commitments. This may mean the loss, to us and
to the City of Atlanta, of the 221(d)(3) reservations for
this project and, if 221(d)(3) money is, as we are advised,
exhausted, it may be some time before new reservations are
obtained if we lose these.

A far more advisable course for you to have followed
(in terms of safeguarding the 221(d)(3) reservations for
this project) would have been to permit FHA to issue their
commitments and in the period preceeding initial mortgage
closing, work with us to achieve that which you feel is
necessary. Your control of our going and our coming is
so complete in every respect that with or without the
commitment we cannot proceed into construction until you

are completely satisfied with our work. You chose, however,
to pursue a course which places the project's development
in jeopardy....a needless and disheartening risk and delay.

Third, I should like to point out that we are no less
interested than are you or any other City Agency concerned
with this project, in producing as superior a development as
possible. Our competition submission was not a pipe dream nor
did we approach it on the basis of winning a beauty contest
thinking to make it work later, as is often the case. I would
imagine that we will be with this project long after most of
the City officials concerned with it now have left the scene
and its success, both as an investment and in the achievement
of our social objectives, depends entirely upon its desirability
to potential tenants.

It was recognized publicly, by you and by us during the
course of the competition, that detailed planning, architecture
and fiscal analysis would require certain changes, but that
the major concepts presented would be preserved. We have
acted in good faith in pursuing our work and those changes which
have been made, in practically every singles instance of concern |
to you, have related to four major factors:

A. The severe cost restrictions governing the 221(d) (3)
program which have become even more severe over this
past year by virtue of the money market and tremendous
increases in construction costs.

development proposals (such as rental town housing
in Parcel E-la and elements of site development) ; ;
have proved to be economically infeasible in terms

of their effect upon rentals.

|

B. Detailed cost analysis of certain of our original : |
|

|

|

Cc. The need to provide the full number of units
originally proposed when certain areas, upon t. ae
detailed site planning, proved to be economically
infeasible for development or, proved to contain
conditions of which we were not advised (such
as County ownership of certain lands within the

project area).
CEREX ATLANTA CORPORATION

D. The rentals and carrying charges which the housing
market with which we are concerned can absorb.

_Lastly, I should like to point out that most of those
elements of our work which you now question: have been known
to your office and to the City Planning Commission for several
months. It is baffling, to say the least, that at this late
and critical date you choose to present your comments.

Now, as to the substance of your letter, I should like
to make the following brief observations which will be enforced
by oral argument and graphic material presented at our meeting
on June 11, 1968.

As to your item (a), we do not agree that the geometric
arrangement of buildings does not provide interesting and
varied pedestrian spaces. The changes we have made in
Parcel E-la with regard to buildings placement are not major.

If you are making an aesthetic judgement, we agree that the
original concept is better, but not that our revision does
it great violence. Additionally, some study of our building
placement would have indicated the extreme topographic con- |
ditions which account for many of our shifts in building

location, conditions we originally felt able to resolve, but

in the face of economics, could not. In this regard, I should
point out that retaining walls were the first to go when the
dollar situation became extreme and this fact mandated a shift
in building, parking and driveway location. :

As to your item (b), rental townhouses in Parcel E-la were:
eliminated solely for reasons of economy and FHA guidance here -
was quite convincing. They proved too costly to build and
could not be absorbed by the rental market with which we
are concerned. Eliminating townhouses eliminated the structured
and disciplined flow of pedestrian traffic, but that function
can be provided by strong and adequately designed pedestrian

pathways.
CEREX ATLANTA CORPORATION

Mr. Howard Openshaw
June 10, 1968

The original competition drawing did in fact show
townhouses step up or down the grades. It was later
recommended by your office and concurred in by us, that
the B-2 site be converted to all co-op townhouses which
more fully and economically served the market for townhouse
occupancy. In addition, FHA requirements regarding per-
centage of grade around the E-la townhouses parking lots
which served these steep townhouse had severe cost impli-
cations. Also, the cost of producing such a steep townhouse
proved to be so high as to approach or exceed the maximum
rentals under the 221(d)(3) program as follows:

Monthly Rent Monthly Charge On
Type of Unit On E-1 Site B-2 (co-op site)
2BR $ 98 $ 81
3BR 112 98
2BR basement 105 96
3BR basement 119 109
4BR basement 126 119

Note: -Includes all utilities

As to your item (c), we agree that the community plaza
.was a major and highly desirable element of our original
proposal. We eliminated it and distributed the functions
elsewhere throughout the project in that a part of Parcel
E-1lb and all of E-lce cannot now be developed for housing due
to certain facts not brought to our attention during the
competition. We, therefore, sought to recapture some of the
lost units by placing them on the community plaza site.
However, we are quite willing to eliminate that housing and
to reinstate the original community plaza proposal, but you
must recognize that this will mean a net loss of approximately
40 dwelling units.

Additionally, it should be noted here that the new
centrally located community recreation area was not only
approved by the Planning Commission and the full Board of
Aldermen in our Community Unit Plan submission, but was also
approved by the Atlanta Housing Authority. Similarily, the
instances -- at FHA insistence.

new church site location plan was forwarded to both the
Housing Authority and Collier Gladdin's office on April
22, 1968 and no objection was raised at that time. :

As to your item (d), changes in relationship of peripheral
drives and parking areas to the housing units they serve, were
made necessary by detailed studies which could not have been
performed during the competition and by other changes such
as building location and elimination of retaining walls.

However, not by any stretch of the imagination can we under-
stand the charge that the basic concept and relationship of
driveways and parking to housing units served, has been violated.

As to the statement that a massive "sea of asphalt" parking
area, remote from housing units is created, we point out that
this is not the fact except perhaps in one instance. Even
though the number of parking spaces has been increased to serve
a larger number of housing units the parking solution in our
proposal is superior to the original in many instances and in
fact results in eliminating seas-of-parking. The statment that
parking areas are remote from housing units is absolutely
unfounded. Except in two instances they are all in the same
relationship as originally proposed and improved in many

As to your item (e), the concept of uninterrupted pedes-
trian streets is maintained. As a matter of fact, it is
improved in both Parcels E-la and B-2. Site plans showing
the use of this particular street has been in your possession
Since March. As a matter of fact, its utilization resulted
as much from your suggestion that it be used and dedicated
to the City so that approximately $30,000 in site improvement |
credits would accrue to the City, as it did from our desire to ©
eliminate the cost of constructing additional roadway.

As to your item (f), the pedestrian and vehicular traffic.
between Parcels B-2 and E-la will provide for controlled :
street crossing as originally proposed.

As to your item (g), we have rethought the placement of
church sites within building clusters in view of our meetings
with church groups which established that the churches will
attract members both from within and without the project area.

‘To place churches within the clustered areas would be to intro-

duce large amounts of parking which we consider undesirable.

As to your item (h), the geometric arrangement of Parcel
B-2 not only does relate to topography, it is governed by
topography. We do propose a cluster arrangement of buildings
with much of the site open and existing trees preserved.
The statement that "the entire site is covered with buildings
and parking areas" is completely unsupported by the facts
and rather contentious. Coverage is approximately 20% for
all buildings, roads and parking areas. The original plan
proposed 331 dwelling units and 450 parking spaces. The present
one proposes 250 dwelling units and 375 parking spaces --
on the same acreage.

MEMORANDUM TO: Mr. Cecil A. Alexander, Chairman
Housing Resources Committee

Pursuant to your suggestion, several days ago I talked to
Jim Parham about E.0.A,. providing administrative support to
Lee Burges‘ newly organized Housing Development Corporation and
informed him of our previous contact with Bill Allison regarding
this matter, At that time Mr. Parham did not appear to be familiar
with it, but said he would talk with Bill Allison and look at the
file on the subject which was provided to Bill Allison by Hall Ware.

Following the Housing Resources Committee Meeting June 6, Mr.
Parham discussed the matter with me and provided me with the attached
copy of "A Proposal to Form the Atlanta Housing Development Corporation",
Mr. Parham stated that he is very spmpathetic with the idea of
E,0.A. providing administrative support for the Housing Development
Corporation; that he will need, however, the following indicated
material in order to present and justify this matter to his Board,
which he feels will be inclined to act favorably upon it:

(A) A copy of the Legal document of Incorporation
of the Housing Development Corporation,

(B) A statement of the Corporations functions,
scope of operation, and principal activities,
as actually established (not the “proposal”
for formation of the Corporation, as contained
in the attached.)

(C) A list of the Corporation's Board of Directors
(Mr. Parham stated that it would be easier for
E.0.A, to support the Housing Development Corporation
administratively, if the Board of Directors
contains representation from the poor).

dune 11, 1968

(D) A statement as to how the Housing Development
Corporation will benefit the poor.

(E) Budget (including breakdown by principal items).

NOTE: At the time of our conversation Mr. Parham insisted that
I give him some concept as to what the total amount of the budget
would probably be, I told him that I did not know, as I felt this
would have to be worked out with the Director, selection of which I
understand is now being considered, but that I anticipate that it

‘would be in the neighborhood of $25,000 per year, principal items of

which would be the salaries of the Director and Secretary, office
supplies and postage.

traffic, allows for safe access throughout the development.
A community shopping center consisting of approximately 7,000 square
feet form an integral part of this development concept which will provide
the daily essentials for residents and the general community. In addition,
an office building complex of approximately 3200 square feet, is incorporated in this community center, providing space for professional
offices and convenient type stores and shops. A day nursery designed to
accommodate preschool-age children of working mothers has been given
special study and the result of this intensive investigation regarding the
special needs of these children are reflected in our day-care center. A
coin-operated laundry facility is also provided. Our development plan
utilizes open spaces and green belts in order to provide a character of
individuality and sense of pride and appreciation. The total 19 3 unit
complex will be served by central air conditioning and heating.
We feel that Martin Luther King, Jr. , Village will be an exciting and
important addition to the City of Atlanta and a major step forward in the
development of residential communities in urban areas.

Re: Rawson-Washington Urban

Martin Luther King, Jr., Village
Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mayor Allen:

I am writing at the request of Dr, Martin Luther King, Sr., in reply to

your letter of May 31, 1968, regarding the progress of the above captioned
project. Please be advised that the Application-Project Mortgage Insurance
(FHA Form 2013) with preliminary plans and specifications were submitted
to the Atlanta Insuring Office of the Federal Housing Administration this
morning, June 3, 1968. The Federal Housing Administration has expressed
its eagerness and willingness to expedite the processing of this case in
order to provide this needed housing at the earliest possible date.

A considerable amount of time and effort has been expended by the
Ebenezer Baptist Church and its representatives to insure the development
of a residential community which embodies the most advanced thinking in
multifamily living.

Our development plan provides for a high rise building consisting of twelve
stories, presenting a panorama view of downtown Atlanta, the express
ways and the spacious splendor of the City. This is the first attempt to
develop a high rise construction under Section 221(d)(3) of the National
Housing Act in the City of Atlanta. With the increasing awareness of the
need for high risé residential facilities, it is imperative that low to
moderate income families, especially families without children, are pro-
vided for in high rise construction in Central City. Larger families will
find spacious accommodations in 2, 3 or 4-bedroom size units with the

3 and 4 bedroom units designed with 11/2 baths. All low rise units are
town houses and garden type, two-story walk-up apartments, with ample

complex will be served by central air conditioning and heating.

We feel that Martin Luther King, Jr., Village will be an exciting and
important addition to the City of Atlanta and a major step forward in the

Your continued interest and cooperation - is greatly appreciated,

HOUSING RESOURCES COMMITTEE
April 18, 1968

Memorandum t
Fromg Malcolm Jones
Re Honor Farm No. 1 (Federal Pen Site)

BACKGROUND
Several days ago Collier Gladin suggested that I try to get private

developers interested in this sites; and recently Dan Sweat asked me to
work with Collier Gladin and Howard Oppenshaw in trying to expedite
development of the housing portion of this site,

On April 10 I had a scheduled conference with a prospective developer
for this site, Mr, Howard Oppenshaw of the Housing Authority and
Mr, Dick Case of HUD participated in the conference. Subsequently [ have
discussed the matter with Collier Gladin and others interested in this
development.
CURRENT STATUS

Title to the property is now in General Services Administration,
Topographic map (2! interval) of the area has been prepared and is in
hands of the Housing Authority. The State Highway Department has
furnished the center~line for the Expressway and is working on slepe
boundary lines, However, the State Highway Depertment cannot accurately
define and confirm the Expressway boundaries until after it holds a
Public Hearing several weeks hence.

A small contiguous triangle shaped tract, acquisition of which is
considered desireble for inclusion in the overall project, is owned by

private interests. It could be acquired seperately by the Housing Authority

and ite acquisition should not delay developnent of the lend to be dedicated

by the Federal Goverment.

Mr. Oppenshaw is now working on a tightly timed development schedule
for 15 single~fanily lots in a portion of the area adjacent to the existing
Thomasville Urban Renewal Project. This should continue and this portion
should be handled separately from the remainder of the housing portion
of the Federal Pen site, |

Honorable Ivan Abken, Jn., Mayon,
City of Atkanta

 
 

WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF EVIDENT.

"CHILDREN OF POVERTY TODAY WILL BE THE PARENTS OF POVERTY
TOMORROW." So said Mrs. Marie McQuine, former United States
Commissioner of Pubkic Housing.

There is a need - in Atkanta - for over 16,000 decent, safe, and
sanitary dwekLing units, a determination made by our Mayor when
he enkisted the aid of many substantial citizens of the City to
begin his campaign and efforts to relieve the deplorable con-
ditions of many of Atkanta's citizens. Hts recognition of the
degraded condition of many areas of the City and the growing
deterionation of existing dwellings began what was almost a
"One Man War" against these unfortunate conditions of the poor.
The facts were gathered and reveaked.

The Mayor appealed to industry to meet this need. Sufficient
dineentive motivated great interest. However, as private interests
began to work, surprisingly every effort was stymied by one
obstacke - - private vested interests.

Several smakl parcels were successfully zoned to receive housing
and were used. Subsequent re-zoning efforts inonically brought
opposition srom every quarter of the City -- no race or religion
exckuded. This was the voice of the people! To this date, this
voice has been heard on practically every petition. Fortunately,
this site was an exception.

Voiced objections and resentments put the Board of Aldeunen

in a position of reluctance to act on any petition for Housing
purposes. Their responsibility 4s to serve the wishes of the
majority of the people. 1% this be it -- the people of Atlanta
have turned their backs on those Less fortunate, and this, in
AtAekh, breeds trouble.

 

 
The aim and purpose of the Federal Housing Assistance Admin-
sstnation have not been understood by the people of Atkanta.
Here 45 a program of assistance and benefit - and we tuin our
backs.

The first result and accomplishment of this program puts a
substantiak roof over the heads of people. That they are

waun, dry, and possibly comfortable is secondary. The first
nesukt and accomplishment 1s Lifting them out of an environment
that has bred crime and moral degeneration. Yet - we tuzn our
backs. We complain of a tax burden?

Is this a tax burden - to move people out of slum areas - to
enforce the Housing Code - to tnitiate a Workable Program to
bring these areas up to standard or demokish them - to relieve
our Police of the exposure to these areas -- 4s this a burden?

Many have stated - as soon ads these slum areas are vacated -
before anything can be done - others move in from out of the
City because of decreased job opportunities in the rural areas

and other cities. Jobkess people must seek. Naturally they

turn to Atkanta - a Mecca - a City on fine - one of the most
thriving metropolitan areas in the Country. Never will they

stop coming. This migration wtke continue whether additional
housing is provided on not - - and 4§ not provided, the slum

areas uikl Spread Like cancer.

What alternative do we have? Shall we ket this influx create
onritical areas where one 44 afraid to wakk -- areas which even
Police cannot control? Ane we intentionally creating schools

of crime and conuption? What ignites the fuse? We have seen
explosions tn other ertres.

1s this what Atkanta wants?
1s this the American way?

Is this the Christian way?

 
 

1t &amp; the fortunate and the able citizens who must help, else
they destroy themselves. Atlanta cannot and must not turn 14s
back to receive the poverty-forced stab of vengeance of those
who are impaled upon the filth and hate of the skums?

Who among us has never had the facrkities of a totket, cooked
on a decent stove, on, as in the past, washed dishes in a pan
and thrown the water out a window? Yet this 4s the Life of
many today.

This start of Atkanta's Largest Public Housing development under
the Twmkey System is a substantial realization and a mlestone
in our Mayor's wart. Five Hundred new homes to house Twenty-Five

Hundred citizens of Atlanta.

Rather than a Ground Breaking, we should say this 44 a Dedication
to the Beginning.

Providing housing and moving people from the slum areas into
decent, safe and sanitary surroundings does not end - it begins

the job.

So, education has become an Amportant part of the Housing Program.
Instead of education, we can better term it the revitalization of
inherent qualities of man. To revitalize the need and urge to
Live property in a welk-butlt, attractive home; to revitalize
the neakization of a continually tmproving environment; to
nevitalize the desine to maintain and upki{t the standard of

such envinonment - to this we pledge ourselves so that he, too,
can go with dignity and pride among all men - - and his children
after hun.

In some instances we may fail - but we will put these failures
behind us as the price we pay to insure our society for posterity.

Thank you s0 much for participating.

�2.
Will Dlsposition be 221 (d)
(3), 202 , only?
a.
221 ( d) ( 3) development would prevent any private development
being fin anced by other FHA or conventional finance. This would
prev~,nt an extensive eco nomic mix in this new area. However ,
higl{ income families now occupy the Single Family Portion of the
Thomasville Project.
b.
To split the area between two programs will require definite
boundaries fo r each , so that ea ch can be appra i sed separately.
c.
221 ( d ) ( 3) would insure l ow and moderate income occupants·.
d.
221 (d) (3) would require special appra isal techniques (write down of l and price ).
e.
Commercial areas must be designated regardless of other
consideration for appra i sal purposes.
f.
I f public housing is involved ( this is at the present ruled out ),
this boundary would have to b e delineated. ( Turn key or conventional).
g.
Can the developer be non-profit , limited dividend , Co -op, or
other, or will it be limited to one .
�3. Who builds primary streets and utilities?
a.
For the developer to bui ld streets and utilities would increase
the cost per dwelling unit.
b.
221 ( d) (3) might affect the decisio ns .
c.
Approximat ely
months would be required for the City or Authority
to build the primary street system sufficiently to provide access .
However , construction can begin prior to advertising sale of land.
d.
A developer could build the streets at his rate of need but probably
6½
no more r apidly than the City or the Authori ty . It would however,
force scheduling of construction to be tied to street construction
schedule ( acc e ss ). This may not be pertinent.

Authority constr uction of the streets would co st the City
approximat ely 1/3.

This document sets forth the basic problems to be considered
in preparation for the development of the New-Town-In-Town program
in the Federal Surplus land from the Federal Pen. The Schedules
contained herein are optimum and probably are too tight to be met
by the agencies involved. However, this optimum scheduling gives
the soundest basis for the consideration of differences between

the various means of carrying out the project.

l.a. Direct Sale By HUD To Developers

HUD states that they would expect the City to provide the land use plan,

assurances as to public facilities, review the developers proposals.

HUD would need Bureau of Budget approval of the method of sale and
would present the proposal to sell to the Bureau prior to making the award.
Each of these steps would consume a minimum of approximately 30 days or a

total of 60 days on this stage.

Under this method the Developer would put in the streets and utilities

and this cost would be reflected in rents or sales prices.
No non-cash credits involved.

Fed. Pen. to GSA to HUD is based on certain improvements (fences, etc.)

which only HUD can finance.

Can HUD acquire the ); non-gov't owned parcels? Leave them out?

Will Disposition be 221 (d) (3), 202, only?

ade

221 (da) (3) development would prevent any private development
being financed by other FHA or conventional finance. This would
prevent an extensive economic mix in this new area. However,
high income families now occupy the eangte Family Portion of the
Thomasville Project.

To split the area between two programs will require definite
boundaries for each, so that each can be appraised separately.

eel (da) (3) would insure low and moderate income occupants.

221 (d) (3) would require special appraisal techniques (write-
down of land price).

Commercial areas must be designated regardless of other
consideration for appraisal purposes.

If public housing is involved (this is at the present ruled out),
this boundary would have to be delineated. (Turn key or conven-
tional).

Can the developer be non-profit, limited dividend, Co-op, or
other; or will it be limited to one.
Who builds primary streets and utilities?

For the developer to build streets and utilities would increase
the cost per dwelling unit.

221 (d) (3) might affect the decisions.

Approximately 64 months would be required for the City or Authority
to build the primary street system sufficiently to provide access.
However, construction can begin prior to advertising sale of land.

A developer could build the streets at his rate of need but probably
no more rapidly than the City or the Authority. It would however,
force scheduling of construction to be tied to street construction
schedule (access). This may not be pertinent.

Authority construction of the streets would cost the City

~ approximately 1/3.

Bridge credits would be affected.

Cost of streets and utilities estimated at $ | .
lh. When should street locations be pinned down (involves savings of
approximately 1-33 months)?

ae If street is pinned down before advertising property:
OF
(1) Would restrict the design of the development plan.

(2) Would define school and park sites so that costs and
credits could be firm.

(3) Would save approximately 1-33 months.

b. After streets are pinned down after advertising and decision on
developer: ;

(1) Would give freedom to the development plan.
©) Cost and credits would not be quite as firm.
(3) Would delay from 1-33 months before construction could be

started (would this be actual or would the architects use
up the time anyway)?
