The by-mail distribution of this newspaper is now over 6,000 copies each month, more than ever before. In addition, we typically deliver 500 copies to locations across our distribution area – all of NPU-W, including the SAND, East Atlanta, and Grant Park neighborhoods as designated in the Atlanta City Charter.
We endeavor to mail to every household in those three neighborhoods, but we may have missed someone along the way. Our original mailing list was gathered by volunteers driving up and down the streets of NPU-W. Then over the years, houses have been demolished and vacant lots filled with houses. To catch anyone who may have been missed, and in an attempt to be balanced and fair, we have included a modest network of three pick-up locations in each of the three neighborhoods. You can find our drop spots, racks, and boxes at the following locations:
East Atlanta
East Atlanta Library – 400 Flat Shoals Avenue
Grant Central Pizza East – 1279 Glenwood Avenue
Joe’s Coffee House – 510 Flat Shoals Avenue
Grant Park
Porch Press Box – Cherokee Avenue in front of Adams Realtors
Grant Park Coffee House – 337 Georgia Avenue
Grant Park Market (new location coming soon) – 519 Memorial Drive in The Larkin complex
SAND
Drip – 929 Garrett Street in Glenwood Park
Little Azio – 479 Moreland Avenue
Red’s Beer Garden – 1328 Boulevard
The Porch Press is also delivered to pick-up spots with apartment/rental managers who have requested to have copies of the paper available for their residents and visitors: Branan Towers, Enso, and Adams Realtors.
If you live in one of the three NPU-W neighborhoods, you can be added to our free mailing list by emailing your address to distribution@theporchpress.com. You can also be added to our mailing list for one year no matter where you live as a thank you for a $99+ donation which can be made on our website.
