where are these buildings located in atlanta?
Roughly in the vicinity of 7 Stages and the parking lot behind, and along Euclid headed toward Moreland.
The rabbit and the tiles are on the side of the Rag-o-Rama building in Little Five Points. If you walk a quarter of the way into the parking lot between Rag-o-Rama and Outback Bikes and look to the right, you should see the tiles. If you turn back toward the street, you’ll see the rabbit, unless it’s been painted over.
The abstract graffiti is on the side of a building on Colquitt at Euclid, though I don’t recall if it’s on the right or left hand side if you’re looking up Colquitt.
The other one is on the side of a building in an alley that you’ll pass if you walk from 7 Stages toward Moreland on the same side of the street. After you pass the parking lot between Rag-o-Rama and Outback Cycles, it’s the next narrow alley you pass and you should see the mural, unless it’s been painted over. It looks like it was commissioned, though, so it may be permanent.
