I did my built Environment description on the Decatur Marta station. The Marta station in my thoughts was going to be like any of the other station. To my surprise, it was much bigger and better than any of the other Marta stations. When I walked off the bus, I immediately saw nice black and white tiles covering the floor instead of the usual cement.
As I walked up the stairs I saw a unique painting on the wall that grabbed my attention fully. The painting on the wall was something I had never seen on a Marta station before. The colors were so bright and made the area seem so much more vibrant than normal.
Upstairs was very bright, It was so bright that it would even hurt your eyes a little bit. Everything seemed so clear and as if I were watching a High definition movie. Most of the people there did not seem as poor as some of the other people from other stations.
In conclusion, this experience was very different for me, because I am normally moving from north to south. On this occasion, however, I moved from east to west and got to see one of the best Marta stations in Metro Atlanta without a doubt. The feel of this Marta station was much more professional and was well air conditioned. The area was big and you were never cramped or bumping into anybody. None of the bad characteristics of Marta of your typical Marta were able to be seen at the Decatur Marta station.
