Arts and Craft (Post#16) : Atlanta From The Ashes (Phoenix) by James Siegler While walking in Peachtree St NW, at the end of Woodruff Park, I saw a monument called “Atlanta From The Ashes” or simply “The Phoenix”. The monument symbolizes the rise of Atlanta from the ashes during the Civil War to become a world city. The monument was created by James Siegler of Houston, Texas. These photos are part of Atlanta Walks Photo Collection November 2015.
