Retelling a History

The brick building that serves as the Newspaper headquarters still stands today, at 947 M.L.K. Jr Dr NW.

The model of the Atlanta Inquirer building, seen above, doubles as a birdhouse for a local bird, the Brown Nuthatch.

The replica contains a special compartment that is their perfect size! Listen to the clip below to hear more about the Nuthatch in the Atlanta area.

Birdhouses in Washington Park

This building, along with three other replica-birdhouse projects, will be installed in Washington Park, Atlanta, in Fall 2019. There, the buildings will serve a new and interactive purpose telling these and other stories through multi-media.
