Conclusion

The built environment of Auburn Avenue has remained more or less the same throughout its long history. There are indeed new introductions to the street. Georgia State University being the prime example. Although some minor changes will come as the University expands its downtown footprint, the decisions of Sweet Auburn itself, however, still stand responsible as to how it wishes itself to be viewed; both within and outside of its bounds. Auburn Avenue became what it was through politics. It is what it is today through the same politics. The Street is constantly changing, reshaping itself and redefining its presence, all due to the influence of politics. The decisions Sweet Auburn made throughout the years is seen through it’s built environment, as I have mentioned previously in the political reflection of the street. The different choices have all lead to the look of Auburn Avenue today, from its preservation of history to its continuation of heritages.
