We didn't post it

The property is $1M

And it's already been explained that it's a combined 0.5 acre lot which automatically makes it about 4 times larger than what is considered a large lot for the area.

That's simply untrue. The lot directly to the left of it is over 1 acre large and only valued at 580k.

The lot in question that is for sale on Zillow at 1.1M is valued at just 130k.
https://qpublic.schneidercorp.com/Applic...5400040341

The real estate company that owns both these lots is artificially inflating the property values of these sites in order to grab the surrounding properties of the locals who can't afford their new taxes. Then they are going to combine the lots and sell it to a developer. The same exact thing is happening in Savannah right now.
Oookay....but there are houses selling for $500k to $750k in the same neighborhood where there is literally no front or back yard.

I can't find a single property in the Summerhill neighborhood that has actually sold for 500k much less 750k. Can you provide a link to a property card?

Again, I could see if people from AR or TX did not know what's going in Atlanta but seriously, if you live here...

Honest question....... where are the folks living now who once rented those fine mansions through HUD? I hope they're being taken care of.

Gentrification ruins affordable housing... that was my direct point. My passive aggressiveness was just run of the mill internet jerk-itude. I honestly wonder where folks move to in major cities when the trust fund kids come into town.

Where does State get the money for all of this?

Markets! COGS

So you don't know? I just know about USG red tape when spending money on athletics. We have to build things with donations. I'm wondering how State buys and builds facilities with so few donors.

Private and corporate donations recently brought in $300mil

I get that the University Foundation has money. Do you guys not separate Athletics money from Academic money? Pretty sure our University Foundation money has to be spent on academics.

nope, but it's not like our academic side is ignored. We just don't mention our academic facilities on this site.

Here are some of the non-athletic construction projects on our downtown campus. Fair to say that our academic facilities receive equal share of the money to our athletic side. (Edit: upon further thoughts, "equal" isnt the right word. We spent much much more toward academics, as panama mentioned. GSU Stadium and GSU Convocation Center spending costs pale in comparison to the new law building, science building, science annex, new classroom buildings, new dorms, new art studio, improvements to the library, etc...so I think your concern about GSU wasting too much money on athletics isnt really an issue.)

Are we back to this? This thread has gone around the track 11 times. I think you should call for an investigation.

Academics and Athletics have never been close to equal in funding and are not close now. We have state of the art oooh and aaaah buildingr for Academics. Baseball and Soccer play 10 miles away in high school level facilities. Ones of the best MBB teams in the country plays in a rec center. As an illustration of how poorly funded Athletics is, the rec center portion moved out into a brand new multi million dollar rec center in the early 2000s and left Athletics behind. It's just now that we are minimally addressing athletics facilities largely due to embarrassment and even slow we are going way slow about it.

RE: Turner Field to be sold to Georgia State University
All this talk of Atlanta neighborhoods wanted me to throw in a plug for App State football alumni and original ATLien, Anthony Cruver of Cruvie clothing.

http://www.cruvie.com/ I think hes based in College Park. He made a sweet shirt that Armanti had a few years ago that I would totally buy, but could never find in stock.

You Ga State guys might be familiar, but just in case you hadn't run by them, looks like hes doing great work.

Very true. Georgia State always prioritized spending toward academics. Only recently we are seeing major investments in athletics.

See, based on the bolded above, here is why we laugh at a lot of what you guys say......

This is a snipit of the current MBB NET Rankings from the NCAA Website. They don't have you listed in the AP or Coaches polls because they don't rank that low on their page.

I used that ranking because that was the only one listed that had any rankings that low. Whether you are 100 or 130, it's still not "one of the best in the country".

It wasn't a jab. It was another example to prove the point to everyone that seems to continually ask "why do GS fans always pick on us". And, I don't agree that it's hyperbole when posting history can be used to prove how delusional ya'll can be sometimes.

Academics and Athletics have never been close to equal in funding and are not close now. We have state of the art oooh and aaaah buildingr for Academics. Baseball and Soccer play 10 miles away in high school level facilities. Ones of the best MBB teams in the country plays in a rec center. As an illustration of how poorly funded Athletics is, the rec center portion moved out into a brand new multi million dollar rec center in the early 2000s and left Athletics behind. It's just now that we are minimally addressing athletics facilities largely due to embarrassment and even slow we are going way slow about it.

See, based on the bolded above, here is why we laugh at a lot of what you guys say......

This is a snipit of the current MBB NET Rankings from the NCAA Website. They don't have you listed in the AP or Coaches polls because they don't rank that low on their page.


128 127 Western Ky. C-USA 14-10 4-7 2-1 8-2 0-0

I'll grant you that you're a game ahead of us in the conf rankings, but I'm not the one saying anything about being one of the best teams in the country. 01-wingedeagle

You know almost everyone in the basketball world is skeptical of the NET ranking right? Houston is better than UNC? Wofford over Kansas State? Ppl call this ranking BS for a reason. NET ranking completely ignores SoS, while rewarding large margins of victory. Almost seems like blowing out Bible College is more rewarding than edging out Alabama on the road 03-lmfao

While conceding to the fact that "one of the best" is bit of a hyperbole, but I can read between the lines. He was using it to prove a point that our current facility is woefully inadequate compared to our product on the court. Thats all there was to that post. Did you really need to make another jab because of that..? Really...? 07-coffee3

I used that ranking because that was the only one listed that had any rankings that low. Whether you are 100 or 130, it's still not "one of the best in the country".

It wasn't a jab. It was another example to prove the point to everyone that seems to continually ask "why do GS fans always pick on us". And, I don't agree that it's hyperbole when posting history can be used to prove how delusional ya'll can be sometimes.

And we are in the 80s in Massey, you know, one of the universal rankings.

And the history of your posts says how salty you are about us, but whatever man. Just neverending complaints from few GS fans like you and eagleskin and some others. It is little tiresome.

RE: Turner Field to be sold to Georgia State University
I figured the more nitpicky GS fans would relax a little once it sunk in that they're better than us at something (the only thing?) they care about again.

nope, but it's not like our academic side is ignored. We just don't mention our academic facilities on this site.

Here are some of the non-athletic construction projects on our downtown campus. Fair to say that our academic facilities receive equal share of the money to our athletic side.

Oh my...

RPI 48 last week.

I have lost track of how many 20 win seasons under CRH or how many wins in last 6 years.

How many P5s taken down this year.

Best eyebrow raising tweet about the program was by our SID with a picture of his 6 year old son reading the GSU MBB program and mentioning that his son does not know what a losing GSU basketball season looks like.

Best team in this state for quite many a year. Period. Not close. Is that better for you?
