4) Watch “Breakfast
at Tiffany’s”
Perfect for the couple that has noth
ing else in common but their love for
this classic film.
The last of the Atlanta Summer Mov
ie series ends on a high note, with the

5) Visit one of DeKalb
County’s oldest houses
Brookhaven’s Solomon Goodwin
House is still hanging in there after near
ly 200 years.
In the 1830s it housed travelers rest
ing from a journey on the wagon trail.
Federal troops used it as a landmark as
they descended on Atlanta during the
Civil War. The home provided for Civ
il War refugees and comfort for those hit
hardest by the Great Depression.
At one time it was part of a 600-acre
farm, but now the house on Peachtree
Street in Brookhaven is all that’s left.
Descendants of the Goodwin family
still own the house. They open its doors
to the public the third Sunday of every
month.

6) Take a stroll across the
Bynum Pedestrian Bridge
Named after the victim of a high-
profile murder, the scenic Gordon C.
Bynum Jr. Pedestrian Bridge connects
the Peachtree Park neighborhood to
Lenox Square via a walkway across Ga.
400. The 223-foot-long bridge was ded
icated in 1999.
There are two entrances to the foot
path that lead to the bridge on the
south side of Ga. 400 — one from Mar
tina Drive and another in the sharp turn
where East Paces Ferry Road now feeds
into Peachtree Drive. A yellow and red
floral display offsets well-maintained
green grass and mature trees along the
path.
Curving, wrought-iron banisters pro
tect raised flower and planting beds, and
the bridge gives pedestrians a view of
Buckhead’s towering skyscrapers.
