About

Little Five Points is a great neighborhood and a blow-by-blow summary of Atlanta’s cultural history. And it didn’t become that way by accident.

Join Brandyn Buchanan (The Pro Poster) as he partners with the ongoing WRFG / L5P Oral History Project to capture the heartbeat of this iconic community. In each episode, Brandyn sits down - whether over the phone, via Discord, or in-person - with the business owners, artists, and long-time residents who shaped, and continue to shape, the soul of Little Five Points.

Together, they dive deep into the memories that matter: the sensory details, the legendary sights and sounds, the stories behind the storefronts, and the deliberate choices that have allowed L5P to keep its funky, independent style through decades of change.

Part of a national movement to celebrate grassroots historic preservation, the project ensures that the spirit of Little Five Points, its struggles, its triumphs, its sheer vitality, is recorded and remembered.

Hear why L5P’s story is a vital example and inspiration for communities everywhere.
