The Tours
Decatur St. heading east from Five Points has assumed many monikers denoting its unsavory side—Slabtown, Murrell’s Row, and “home of humanity” being just a few. Vice City explores the hard-living, rabble-rousing disrupters symbolizing a frontier town-transformed-cosmopolitan-metropolis on the one side. And on the other, a self-made aristocracy with a penchant for Victorian mores and values that closely guarded their provincial Southern capital’s image at any cost. The past and present play out in our journey and on Atlanta’s city streets.
This tour’s a little risqué, but don’t worry…we won’t tell your Bubbe! Unless she wants to join.
