SPRI NG 2014 Each and every year, my pride in Atlanta and the state of Georgia as a whole continues to grow. Just recently, Site Selection magazine ranked Georgia number one in the U.S. for the top state to do business. Area Development magazine has also taken heed of Georgia's growth, ranking our state number three in the country in best business environment and labor climate and number two in overall infrastructure and global access. I believe our progress as a leading location to conduct and grow business combined with our acres upon acres of picturesque green foliage along with our state's Southern charm makes Georgia a truly special place. And here at Harry Norman, S® we are right in the heart of it all. S® REALTORS®, At Harry Norman, we have our finger on the pulse of what is happening not only in our region, but also on what is happening in our industry. The real estate industry continues to improve and strengthen, and 2014 is shaping up to be an incredible year for our brokerage. Our REALTORS® are continuing to set the bar as the top in the market, and we are busy launching new initiatives like our All Access Mobile App. I am excited to see what the second half of 2014 will bring!

lanked by luxury hotels and condos, trendy boutiques and glitzy salons, sits an unassuming structure in the heart of Buckhead, home to nationally-renowned exhibits and 22 acres of stunningly lush flora and foliage. Even those native to Atlanta may have overlooked the Atlanta History Center, a local gem that sits along the bustling West Paces Ferry Road. Dedicated to bringing to life pivotal moments in Georgia history, the Cherokee Garden Library at Atlanta History Center has brought a new treasure this spring: a traveling exhibition focused on the contributions of John and William Bartram, early American explorers, naturalists, and artists that scouted the American colonies in the 1700s. The American Society of Botanical Artists’ traveling exhibition, coined Following in the Bartrams’ Footsteps: Contemporary Botanical Artists Explore the Bartrams’ Legacy, on display until June 17th, features world-class, contemporary botanical artwork of the plants discovered and introduced by William and his father, John, on their defining journeys. These discoveries mark a pivotal moment in not just Southeastern American botanical history, but have since influenced generations of artists, explorers, writers, and botanists alike throughout the world. ©Lizzie Sanders Tradescantia virginiana, Spiderwort

The exhibit also features holdings from the Cherokee Garden Library and Atlanta History Center collections, including historic books, objects an 18th-century explorer would have carried, and one-of-a-kind artifacts

“The Bartrams’ history in our region is significant, specifically to the Atlanta History Center in relation to interpretation of our living artifacts located in our… gardens.

William’s ability to seamlessly transition from rugged back country culture to the refined, genteel plantations of the day made him the ideal man for the lengthy journey, much to his father’s delight. By becoming a cultural chameleon, William was able to discover more about local botany and culture harmoniously.

With his unruly son, William, in tow, the two set out on a journey that provided the Mother Land with invaluable information on the indigenous land, the ripple effects of which we can still feel today.
The result of the Bartrams’ four-year journey was William’s book, Travels through North and South Carolina, Georgia, East and West Florida, the Cherokee Country, the Extensive Territories of the Muscogulges, or Creek Confederacy, published in 1791. Since its publication, the text has been translated into numerous different languages, and has become a naturalist’s Bible of sorts for many.
The exhibition is currently on display in McElreath Hall at the Atlanta History Center. In addition to viewing the botanical artwork and holdings from the Cherokee Garden Library and Atlanta History Center collections, Bartrams’ flora featured in the Mary Howard Gilbert Memorial Quarry Garden allows visitors to experience the exhibition in a living, interactive element.

Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar Tasting Shops Enter Local Market By Liz Bloeser On an unseasonably warm and bright Thursday afternoon in February, my coworker Melissa and I hold little plastic cups heaped with vanilla Blue Bell®® ice cream, watching as Deborah Hardee seamlessly floats around her sun-filled store, grabbing glass bottles of mixtures that we will pour over our ice cream. She expertly explains the flavors she is choosing, as she knows just what exactly will pair best with our vanilla ice cream. And when she stands in front of us holding her choices, it isn’t of sugary syrups like you might think. Instead, it’s of some of the world’s finest Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegars.

Deborah, along with her friend and business partner Suzanne Davidson, is the owner of Oli + Ve, a tasting shop for high-quality premium olive oils and vinegars, the first of its kind in the state of Georgia.The two women first opened the doors of their Roswell location on March 2, 2012, and have since opened two additional locations in Buckhead and Vinings due to the success of their Roswell shop.What started as a love and appreciation for fine quality olive oil and the desire to own a business focused on fellowship around a table with family and friends, grew into a full-fledged business plan.
“I had a lot of ideas over the years for wanting to start my own business, and they all centered around food,” Suzanne explained. “I love to cook and food was a big part of my role as a mother… having a mealtime where we all sat down together was important to me, both to provide a healthy meal and taking time together as a family.” When she was attending an out-of-town wedding and a friend pointed out a tasting shop for oils and vinegars, she knew she had found her calling. “I knew immediately this is what I wanted to do,” Suzanne matter-of-factly stated. When her older brother introduced Suzanne to Deborah, who was interested in opening a retail shop, she knew it was a natural fit. The concept of allowing patrons to sample their oils and vinegars before purchasing is not a novel concept in the United States, but it was in Georgia when Deborah and Suzanne first opened the doors of Oli + Ve. Despite the novelty, the community welcomed the concept, and business has flourished. Now, the stores attract a variety of customers, from foodies looking to spice up their recipes with gourmet olive oils, to on-the-go businesspeople looking for a quick

yet thoughtful gift. In addition to their featured oils and vinegars, the stores also carry pastas, soaps and lotions made from olive oil, wooden kitchen accessories, handmade pottery, flavored salts, rubs and blends, bread boards and dipping bowls. Melissa and I share a quick nervous-yet-enthusiastic look before digging into our tiny cups of ice cream.While the combination of sweet ice cream with savory olive oils
and balsamics sounds strange, the two of us understand Deborah’s choices instantly. Her choices are, in short, delicious: we try the vanilla ice cream with chocolate, raspberry, and strawberry baslamics, each one offering an unpredictably delicious assortment of
flavors. Perhaps my favorite combination of flavors was a small bite of chocolate brownie with Blood Orange Fused EVOO. As we left the store in a sugar-induced high, Melissa and I both agree that we had become EVOO converts during our first, and certainly not last visit to Oli + Ve. Oli + Ve is located in Buckhead, Roswell, and Vinings. Patrons may take advantage of their unique “taste-before-you-buy “
concept Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. and Sundays from 1 p.m. until 5 p.m. The shops are also available for private parties and events. Photos courtesy of Jonathan Gailey

Take, for instance, Monsieur, an artificially intelligent robotic bartender who knows your favorite drink and is ready to pour at your command. Monsieur is a construct of three Georgia Tech graduates who wondered if there was a faster way to order drinks other than standing in front of a bar, trying desperately to get the bartender’s attention. The box-shaped device has an Android-powered, pin-accessed touchscreen control and is Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® enabled to access a cloud-based control center, where new cocktail recipes can be added and downloaded into the system. Eight different liquors can be loaded into Monsieur, with 300 cocktail possibilities. Monsieur can serve up 150 drinks before it needs to replenish, and can make
even the most complicated cocktails in a snap. If after a challenging day at work a Manhattan can be the only saving grace, just place your order with Monsieur via smartphone or tablet before heading home and arrive to an expertly blended glass of whiskey, sweet vermouth and dash of bitter. Prefer wine instead? Vinotemp offers the Formica 250-Model wine cabinet that easily stores 144 of your favorite wines at a cool 55 degrees with no more than 70% humidity. A biometric fingerprint lock keeps the kids away from your Chateau Le Pin Pomerol 1999. Realizing just how big an investment your wine collection can be, Vinotemp also offers the Wine
foot long tub. The speakers connect via Bluetooth® to your smartphone, tablet or mp3 player and send sound waves through the water that gently resound throughout your body. The airjets massage with thousands of bubbles at 18 intensity levels as you determine through a touchscreen interface exactly where on your body needs the most attention. Are you in a red mood? Blue mood? Orange mood? Underscore’s® chromotherapy feature infuses the bath with color, allowing you to explore all shades of your mood.
Mate Call System, an ingenious device that monitors the internal environment of your cabinet or wine cellar. Should the temperature go out of range, the system will call up to four of your personal numbers so you can act in time to protect your investment. Beyond entertaining, technology has also made the modern home a cornucopia of convenience, providing what even the most accomplished person can’t buy: more time - time to do more important things while technology takes care of the home. The company iRobot® has embraced the idea of technology being indispensable to the modern home. In 2002, iRobot® introduced the Roomba® vacuum cleaning robot to the applause of housewives everywhere. Since then, jetsetters and road warriors have joined the chorus as the Roomba’s® many advancements have allowed them to return from long trips to a clean home. Roomba® can be programmed to vacuum on a set schedule. When
that day and time arrives, it eagerly goes to work tackling any dirt it finds. The system is enabled with optical and acoustic sensors to determine how much dirt is in a particular area and how much effort will be needed to remove it all. Roomba® knows when it’s done cleaning a room and to move on to the next, and also knows which parts of a room you’d like it to avoid. When it’s finished, Roomba® puts itself away. iRobot® recently followed up Roomba® with Mirra™, another robot that does for in-ground pools what Roomba® does for carpets. Once submerged, Mirra™ aggressively scrubs dirt, algae and microscopic bacteria off of your pool’s floor and walls while pumping and filtering 70 gallons of water per minute. All the while, you can catch up on your tan. For many people, the bathroom offers the best escape after a very busy day. Kohler®, with its exhaustive collection of technologically enhanced bathroom products, is another company that understands luxury essentials of the modern home. The Kohler® Underscore® bath transforms the simple act of bathing into a mind-body sensory experience to ease away troubles. Six hidden speakers and 122 airjets surround the spacious, six
A modern home is incomplete without a modern toilet. While the Japanese may have introduced the concept of the eponymous “Japanese toilet,” American technology is quickly catching up. The AT200 Smart Toilet from DXV American Standard delivers to the modern home a sleek, streamlined apparatus that pleasantly changes the bathroom experience. It’s not just the heated seats, hands-free flushing, two-nozzle water-spray system and integrated air dryer that makes this toilet a must-have. This aptly named “smart toilet” also automatically closes the lid! We may not yet have the flying houses that 60’s science fiction writer Arthur Clarke once predicted would be how this millennium would travel south for winter, but as technology continues to advance the modern home, we may not want it. What’s a flying house when you can sip a perfectly made Cosmopolitan cocktail while your bath tub works out the knots in your back?

The Back Story
HARRY NORMAN, REALTORS®
Helps Save one of Atlanta’s Historic Mansions by Diane Storey
Several magnificent mansions once lined Peachtree Road, designed by the most renowned architects of the day. But as time and progress marched forward, all but one of these stately homes were torn down and replaced with office buildings, condominiums, and general urban sprawl. Immortalized in Anne River Siddons’ Peachtree Road, the Randolph-Lucas Mansion stood alone.
Arthur and Margaret Lucas purchased the mansion in 1935. Mr. Lucas owned several Atlanta theatres including the Tenth Street Theater and the West End Theater. The couple lived there until Arthur’s death and Margaret remained until her death in 1987. This was the last time the house was used as a residence. FADED AND FORGOTTEN
A NEW BEGINNING Christopher Jones and Roger Smith, founders of New Town Partners, were chosen to restore the mansion to its original splendor. They also donated a preservation façade easement to the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation, ensuring that the mansion would never be torn down.
A MAGNIFICENT MANSION The Randolph-Lucas Mansion was built by famed architect Phillip Thornton Marye, one of the most important architects in Atlanta and the South. Marye’s work included the historic Fox Theatre, St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, the Atlanta, Birmingham and Mobile train terminals, and several residential estates. In 1924, Marye designed and built a grand estate for Hollins Nicholas Randolph, a great, great grandson of Thomas Jefferson and a prominent Atlanta attorney. The design was based on Randolph’s ancestral home “Dunlora” in Albemarle County, Virginia. The home was built on Peachtree Road between Muscogee Avenue and West Wesley Road. The Randolph family lived there for 10 years.
Faded and falling into disrepair, the mansion was finally slated for demolition in 1988. Fortunately, the City of Atlanta intervened in 1990 and designated it a Historic Building. In 1997, developer Blaine Kelly purchased the property to build high-rise condominiums. The Atlanta Preservation Center and The Peachtree Heights West Civic Association agreed to support the project as long as the mansion remained. The mansion was moved 35 feet forward and 30 feet to the South to make room for the new 2500 Peachtree condominiums and was used as a sales office until it was turned over to the condo association in 2003. A few years later, the condo association applied for a demolition permit. Once again the dilapidated mansion was slated for the wrecking ball. This time, Buckhead Heritage stepped in with a plan to relocate the mansion. They worked with the condo association and the City of Atlanta to make the relocation project a reality, offering the mansion free to anyone who could move and restore it.
Long time friend of the new owners, real estate agent Carolyn Calloway of Harry Norman, REALTORS® was instrumental in finding the mansion’s new home at 78 Peachtree Circle in Ansley Park. “From acquiring the lot to the numerous meetings with the City of Atlanta, house movers, utility companies and the Department of Transportation, this has been both a challenging and rewarding project for Roger and Christopher,” said Calloway. “They are passionate about moving this home to Ansley Park with other historically significant properties.” On Saturday, November 8th, the mansion made its historic journey down Peachtree Road to its new home. Hundreds of Atlantans lined Peachtree to watch the spectacle. Even though the Randolph-Lucas Mansion is at its forever home in Ansley Park, it will take time to restore the mansion to its original grandeur.
