This home is in EAV, not Cabbagetown (photos taken by Dave Coustan, a resident.)
Why has the [tag]Atlanta media[/tag] completely ignored East Atlanta Village? I know the damage is not as extensive as it was in [tag]Cabbagetown[/tag], but indeed quite a few homes were hit by massive trees, debris flew around, and people were left homeless. I have a friend who had to move out of his home for a while because of the damage. Old trees came down across [tag]Glenwood Avenue[/tag] (certainly the media has heard of Glenwood Avenue) and power lines were thrown all across the Village itself.
Could it be that East Atlanta Village is ignored because it is on the other side of I-20? I certainly hope not. Regardless, the neighborhood needs help too – and lots of it. I do know Hands On Atlanta has moved in to help, and certainly our Atlanta Councilwoman, [tag]Natilyn Archibong,[/tag] has asked for assistance. But, the media has never truly gotten involved with this area, therefore, the majority of individuals in the greater Atlanta area have no idea how hard hit East Atlanta was. Sad, sad, sad.

Look, another home hit in East Atlanta Village.
