Today’s walk was through the Radcliffe neighborhood, near Russell Cave Road and next to I-75.  The mix of architecture made me think initially that this neighborhood had been built over a relatively long period, with both very basic brick homes and more complex split-level designs.  It turns out the time-frame for these houses is fairly consistently mid- to late- 1960’s.  While some of the neighborhood felt as if it were undergoing that last surge of change before it settles in to a steady state, other parts felt…grandmotherly, perhaps?

Otherwise, there weren’t a whole lot of surprises, just a relatively quiet neighborhood where neighbors are looking out for each other.

The good: Watchful neighbors

The bad:  Proximity to the highway with little sound abatement
