There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

The suburbs aren't as suburban as they used to be.
Shifts in market demand are driving the reinhabitation, redevelopment and regreening of hundreds of vacant big boxes, dead malls, dying commercial strips an other under performing properties into more sustainable places.
During the Museum of Design Atlanta's Design Conversation on Wednesday, Oct. 3, Ellen Dunham-Jones, Professor of Architecture and Urban Design, will share ongoing research from her award winning 2009/2011 co-authored book, Retrofitting Suburbia: Urban Design Solutions for Redesigning Suburbs.
Advance tickets are available online and are $5 for students. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the lecture begins at 6:30 p.m.
