Atlanta: 1939
May 1939. "Slums in Negro district. Atlanta, Georgia." Medium format negative by Marion Post Wolcott for the Farm Security Administration. View full size.
Shorpy Vehicle Identification Imperative
1936 Chevrolet Master 4 door sedan
Location
The tower directly in view is the Candler Building (built in 1906 by Coca-Cola magnate Asa Candler), while the one just to the right is the Rhodes-Haverty Building (completed in 1929; Atlanta's tallest until 1954). Both are still standing.
The photo was taken from within what is now the Martin Luther King Jr National Historic Site. I suspect the location is Jackson Street just north of Auburn Avenue where the Ebeneezer Baptist Church and the King home are located.
