How does the design of Underground Atlanta affect people’s’ behavior in the space?
T: The area is connected and right next to the Five Points transit station in which mostly a majority of middle or lower class people are using the public transportation systems.
T: Underground Atlanta is also located along a street where some stores are run down and is surrounded by groups of homeless or struggling individuals requesting for change or making out calls.
T: Half of the mall/clubbing area of Underground Atlanta is is closed down which sometimes can bring in potential trespassers or struggling/homeless citizens looking to stay in an inside area.
T: According to mepps2’s personal site response about the area, when they visited Underground Atlanta five years ago it was busy and lively. They have spoke to merchants about the change and how business have relocated in the recent years causing less people, including tourists, to come to the attraction.
