4th and Broad
the intersection of 4th and Broad here in chattanooga has a special place in my heart, for I've been employed here more often than not. my senior year in college I worked parttime for greyfriars, which, upon graduation, turned into fulltime for the balance of the year. lots of good memories, but I did get tired of it.
then I went to work for jeff back when coptix was cross computer consulting. I will ever be thankful to him for getting me my start in web stuff.
but in a little while I was back on the block, working for 3HD. I even did double duty one summer, working for greyfriars (6am to 9am) and 3HD (9-5) to help pay off the credit cards. but that was a bit much.
6 months ago we moved offices, but it was only a few hundred feet north, closer to the intersection. and the intersection itself is looking much better: the haney building has been leveled, and 4th is two-way with trees and whatnot.
so here's a shot of the corner, as well as one of the back porch here at the new office. for the record, points of interest in the photo: creative discovery museum, bellsouth park (go lookouts!), a couple hotels, and the back of the bijou theater.

Your streets are eerily clean. It reminds me of St. Louis.
yeah that may be the cleanest corner in town these days, as it was just reconstructed, and is in the middle of the tourist corridor to the fish tank.
