Flashback photos: A journey down Spring Street, 1930-1985
One of Atlanta's major thoroughfares, Spring Street has been the home to some of our city's iconic landmarks. Among the street's most memorable and beloved spots is the Varsity, feeding Atlanta since 1928. Between 1980 and 1986, it was home to the 688 Club, a live music venue that still lives in the hearts of many who were lucky enough to catch a show there. Page through these photos and take a little nostalgic trip down Spring Street.
