The City that Keeps on Giving - Authentic Living in Atlanta

June 18th, 2021

The Atlanta lifestyle is lived, by many, only once and only partially. Visitors to one of the busiest airports in the world, Hartsfield-Jackson, might stop here for a visit or a layover - experiencing only the smallest sliver of what the city has to offer. Sampling Atlanta via short visits is exciting; sights, sounds, flavors, and “once-in-a-lifetime” experiences careen by.

But authentic living in this city becomes more than that. It is sustaining - the initial crescendo of art and culture coalesces into a background hum, the soundtrack to your life in Atlanta and a backbeat you come to expect and love. Globally-recognized dining experiences, breathtaking art and culture events, and beloved, walkable community features are all bound together in the authentic Atlanta lifestyle. It creates an ever-shifting song sustained by a chorus of Atlantan voices.

And you have an opportunity to join in that chorus.

Read on and see the life that’s really waiting in Atlanta, beyond the landmarks and old standbys, and how you can make the dream of an authentic, engaged life in Atlanta a reality.

World-Class Dining

For real, literal sustenance, food comes first. Dining in Atlanta runs the gamut from high-profile fine dining, to local and deeply conscious food experiences. The city bristles with options though, and the two standouts below are far from representative of Atlanta’s full food scene - though they add plenty of vibrancy.

Established in 2013 as a subsidiary of the nonprofit Giving Kitchen, Staplehouse provides conscious, earthy, chef-driven New American dining just north of Cabbagetown. Operating as a take-home market as of June 2021, the selection remains one of the best in the city with hyperlocal ingredients and a seasonal menu.

Lazy Betty is a relaxed and unhurried fine dining experience in Atlanta’s Candler Park neighborhood. Le Bernardin trained chefs, Ron Hsu and Aaron Phillips provide unbelievable 4- 7- and 10-course tasting menus that remain technically impressive, yet unconfusing and delicious. With no dress code, but plates full of world-class food, it’s an experience that any city dweller can grow to love.

Entertainment Events and Cultural Connections

A constant rush of cultural artifacts and events move through Atlanta’s venues and galleries, adding oxygen to the pulse of the city. Atlanta’s art district is legendary, with the Woodruff Arts Center as its beating heart. Culture in Atlanta flows through this collection of institutions like lifeblood, with the Alliance Theater, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, and the High Museum of Art playing host to high profile shows and exhibitions all year.

Life in Atlanta with Your Feet on the Ground - Walkable Pratt Stacks

The note that binds all of this together, that truly creates an authentic life in Atlanta, is the place you call home. At Pratt Stacks, home is a gorgeous luxury, low maintenance townhome in an incredible, walkable neighborhood in Historic Grant Park. Located on Grant Street SE in Grant Park, residents of Pratt Stacks have walking access to restaurants, Eventide Brewing, Grant Park Farmers Market and more.

However, the best amenity, and the true mark of an authentic Atlanta lifestyle, is your connection to the beloved citywide trail, The BeltLine. From your new townhome in Pratt Stacks you can walk out your door, down a path with your preferred mode of urban transportation (bike, roller skates, or running shoes) to a collection of parks, art, shops, restaurants, and much more - and become part of the song of the city.

Pratt Stacks is a collection of townhomes offering walkability, connection to the city, and an authentic Atlanta lifestyle.
