Come Live at Saint Anne’s Terrace in the Heart of
Buckhead and Enjoy Retirement Living Your Way!
What Bud Lovell loves about
living at St. Anne’s Terrace:
“I can commune with nature from
my apartment by looking out at the
fruit trees changing color with the
seasons and watching the birds on
the two feeders outside my window.”

Screening Saved My Life.
It can save yours too. Research has shown that through
early detection and removal of colon polyps during a
colonoscopy, colon cancer can actually be prevented.
The Board Certified physicians of Atlanta Gastroenterology
Associates are asking men and women over the age of 50,
or anyone with a family history of colon cancer, to take
charge of their health and get a screening colonoscopy.

Certain shows off a little-known feature near Wieuca Overlook.
North Buckhead: large,

Certain has learned to cope with the de
feat of losing the battle over the high
way that looms over the community like
a conqueror’s statue.
When Ga. 400 opened in 1993, he
wasn’t sure what would happen.
“I was really afraid of the noise,” Cer
tain said.
That didn’t deter the neighborhood’s
growth, however. “They built houses
that went for $2 million that back right
up to the thing.”
Today, more than 8,000 people call
North Buckhead home. Roswell Road
Northeast and Peachtree Dunwoody
Road Northeast form the neighbor
hood’s western and eastern borders. Its
southernmost boundary is the intersec
tion of Peachtree Road Northeast and
Piedmont Road Northeast, and the
neighborhood extends north just shy of
Windsor Parkway Northeast. Ga. 400
runs north to south through it.

edge of the community makes him

His neighborhood group adopted a
strategy of reclaiming whatever parts of the
place they could and making it their own.
Case in point: Certain stood beneath
Ga. 400 where it crosses Mountain Way
Northeast, his car parked next to its tall,
rectangular beams. Using a three-di
mensional diagram he had hand-craft-
ed and infused with a meticulous level
of detail, he traced the outline of a park
proposed for the space.
The seats of an amphitheater could go
on the angled concrete wall buttressing the
rumbling road above, he said. On the oth-
