Built Environment
In this image of East Atlanta, the Moreland Avenue street sign is placed behind the big welcoming sign of East Atlanta. This part of Moreland Avenue sets off a sketchy vibe at certain areas, while also giving a laid-back “chill” vibe in the others. It felt almost relaxing once you get to the nicer areas where the bars, restaurants, and shopping strips are.
Morris, Mike. “Two Suspects Arrested after Allegedly Robbing Moreland Avenue…” Two Suspects Arrested after Allegedly Robbing Moreland Avenue… N.p., n.d. Web. 05 Feb. 2016.
In this article, author Mike Morris was explaining a recent armed robbery that took place inside of the Kroger on Moreland Avenue. In the last sentence of the article it was recorded as “The incident was the second robbery at the store in recent weeks” inferring crime is not unusual on Moreland Avenue. While Moreland Avenue has its nicer areas like Little Five Points and East Atlanta, it also has the less fortunate areas as well. This article helps me as a writer because it shows me there are also high crime rates in the areas that aren’t as nice as the others. Because of the length of Moreland Avenue it allows me to elaborate on not only the nice areas of the strip, but also inform one, that if they go too far they could end up in an area not so nice.
“Little Five Points.” In Atlanta, GA. N.p., n.d. Web. 04 Feb. 2016.
In this article, Little Five Points is glorified as being one of the top locations along Moreland Avenue. This is helpful for me or any visitors because it locates popular tourist areas along Moreland Avenue while giving multiple variations of entertainment and attractions for those new to Atlanta. Being one of the first areas you’ll encounter when going south on Moreland Avenue, you can view the unique culture and charismatic nature in Little Five Points. According to the article, it is well known for its street art, vintage shops and eateries. In addition, the article portrays how Moreland Avenue offers various locations suitable for any person regardless of what they are into; Little Five Points being for those more of the creative side. Although this is a specific location to such a broad topic, it allows me to highlight the multiple popular locations along Moreland Avenue that make it a well-known area of Atlanta.

This article gives historical background information on the area of East Atlanta in a timeline format which is made easy for its reader. As a writer composing a blog on Moreland Avenue, this article is very beneficial to me because it allows me to study the history of the area and what makes it thrive and brings revenue to this specific area. This article also provides me with the demographics of the area which allows for more interpretation of the cultural background of the environment. Recently, (1981, as stated in the article) East Atlanta has become a “sense of a community in the neighborhood and work to improve the quality of life” around that area. Now populated with bars, restaurants, and popular music culture, East Atlanta is a convenient location off of Moreland Ave. that many people enjoy each and every day.
Do we have to do the annotated bibliographies over a certain article or choices like the reading summaries? I just looked at the calendar and it doesn’t have any specifics.

In this photo of the Moreland Avenue exit sign off of I-20, it is shown on an album cover of an artists’ mixtape. This image displays city and the hip-hop culture intertwined as one to create a voice overheard with recognition to the area.
What do I do to Maximize points outside of the actual work?
