Anyway, there used to be a sort of secret shortcut out of the dead end. It was a seriously steep, curved driveway that went around and behind a really small apartment complex that is/was just to the right of the entrance to what's now City Place. It was right here. The other end of the driveway came out on Ardmore Circle. I don't know if the little apartment complex is back there anymore, but as you can see, that driveway has been plowed up, covered up and grown over.

I've still not been on a Beltline tour so I just signed up for one this weekend.

I thought I was the only one that knew about that super-secret short-cut
