Interiors

I thought it would be cool to showcase some the interiors of the 17th St. Lofts so that you guys can get some good visuals of where these ladies live.  These images are courtesy of apartments.com, cflane.com and atlantaurbancondoliving.com

Magic City

Located at 241 Forsyth Street in downtown Atlanta, Magic City is open from 3 p.m. to 3 a.m. every day except Sunday.  This is a very popular strip club.  I've never been to Magic City, but you can see it from the interchange and it is within walking distance from the MARTA Garnett train station.

Magic City is about five miles from Atlantic Station, and while I could have picked any one of the multitude of strip clubs Atlanta has to offer, the muse chose Magic City.  And y'all know I don't argue with her.

Jo is a bartender at Magic City and Neveyah is a dancer.  As is my right as an author, I've taken some liberties with aspects of Magic City's interior, structure, routine and business model to accommodate the story I'm trying to tell.

17th St. Lofts

Atlantic Station is a live-work-play community, and the 17th St. Lofts are located at 260 17.5th Street in Atlantic Station. Each apartment home opens into a loft space and is surrounded by hardwood flooring, stainless steel appliances, custom lighting, and magnificent views of Atlanta. Countless shops and restaurants line the streets below the apartments, making life very convenient.


Of course, I've made several modifications for the purposes of my story; the main one being that there are only three apartment homes on the sixth floor. But that's one of the perks of being an author. Cressida lives in Six-A, which is a 3BR/3BA. Lee-Lee and Monica live in Six-B, which is a 2BR/2BA. Jo and Neveyah live in Six-C, which is a 3BR/2BA.

How This Came to Be

Over At the Bar, Ankh posted a writing challenge titled "Midnight to 4 a.m."  We have to use the following actresses:  Bianca Lawson, Sujata Day, Michelle Krusiec & Jana Mashonee.  I added another actress to round out the cast: Chrystee Pharris.  We must churn out a possible TV screenplay using the following construct:

1) What are their names?
2) What are their individual backstories?
3) How did they meet?
4) Why are they friends?
5) Do they live together or apart?  Why?
6) Where is their story set?
7) What's their genre?
8) What would be the plot of the very first ep?
9) What would be the theme of the first season?
10.) How did each lady end up living in the apartment house?

Here is my submission.
