Egbert Perry and Affordable Housing: How One Man’s Vision Launched a National Movement

by Jaime Lackey January 12, 2020

Another, often overlooked, part of this picture includes Atlanta’s skywalks. In the early days of redevelopment, these walkways connected luxury buildings above urban neighborhoods that many had abandoned, and effectively furthered the separation of the “haves” from the “have-nots.” Iconic Atlanta developer Egbert Perry was driven to challenge development that emphasized the separation. From his perspective, perpetuating the separation of community members simply perpetuated the issues of inequity and injustice that plagued the city. Perry was motivated to bring people together in a different way, in neighborhoods that would appeal to everyone.

The 60-acre property was located in the heart of downtown Atlanta, and was considered to be the most …
