Those tracks need some desperate attention in terms of leveling the asphalt.

Love the street level commercial space.   In this most recent redevelopment of West End Park that has happened over the last 15 years or so,  the city really missed a huge opportunity to build out a modern, urban neighborhood with a good mix of residential and neighborhood-scale retail and restaurants, all just steps from a significant commercial corridor.  Instead, developers just largely recreated what was there in the 80's and 90's- a really jumbled hodgepodge of exclusively residential apartments and townhome condos.   History repeating.....

I couldn't agree more about the West End Park neighborhood as a whole.  I always get frustrated when I drive through it or see pictures of it, because as you said, it represents such a huge missed opportunity.  The density these days is there for a relatively vibrant urban neighborhood.  But unfortunately it appears that there was/is little in the way of development guidelines in place so in practice it has developed into just a random hodgepodge of insular disconnected apartment blocks that sit along a series of streets that look largely like they did thirty years ago.  It really is a mess as far as urban planning is concerned, and it's a shame to see.  Hopefully this new development, which appears to actually address the street and offer something for pedestrians, will inspire some change in the neighborhood.

I'll add to the sentiment about West End Park. I lived there in a now-demolished older building in the early 2000s. It now reminds me of some of the dense yet completely car-centric neighborhoods north of Atlanta. Agree that it is largely a failure of planning/ design guidelines.
