As I left my home city, Los Angeles, looking down on the sprawl and smog, I wondere what it would be like to spend three months in Atlanta working on a movie.

I’d heard of this new project called “The Belt Line” which is a repurposed Old train track turned in to a walkway for pedestrians and cyclists.

I found a great air BnB near the belt line and on my first day took a stroll.

I was amazed at what I saw, public art, restaurants with patios up against the walkway and the peaceful serene sense that you get in all pedestrian areas.

Down here in my new home of Old 4th Ward, the food is great, the people are friendly, and exercise is easy. Way to go Atlanta!

Isn't it great when an old railroad can be repurposed into a pathway for pedestrians and bikers? Atlanta looks beautiful, thanks for the photos.

It sure is! It’s amazing what it does for the community!

Beautiful pics 👌🏼 Atlanta seems to be a nice place! Good luck!

It's amazing when a city is built to encourage its people to experience it by foot. You see so much more that way. Looks like an exciting place to spend the next months!
