Canopy Atlanta asked over 90 Collier Heights community members about the storytelling they needed in their community. In those conversations, neighbors share about the uniqueness of the houses in the neighborhood. One person said, “I remember spacious bedrooms with lots of natural light and beautiful hardwood floors. I believe the home made such an impression on me because the space was so radiant, yet charmingly serene.” Another said, “Basements have open designs…so people could have parties, have dinners. The average home looks single story, but if you go behind it, the topography of the land is hilly, but most of the homes are 2-3 stories high.” This story emerged from those memories they shared.
Canopy Atlanta also trains and pays community members, our Fellows, to learn reporting skills to better serve their community. Damius Smith, a reporter on this story, is a Canopy Atlanta Fellow.
