This month, two new homeowners put down roots in Atlanta’s historic Westside through Home on the Westside, marking important milestones for their families and for the community.

Leon Pellew: A New Home in English Avenue

Leon Pellew recently closed on a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home in English Avenue through Home on the Westside.

A proud veteran and a team member at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Leon is now a homeowner along James P. Brawley Drive. His new home provides space and stability for him and his three young daughters, as well as proximity to work and daily life on the Westside.

We’re proud to celebrate this milestone with Leon and to welcome his family home.

Michaela James: Beginning a New Chapter

Michaela James also recently purchased her home along James P. Brawley Drive in English Avenue through Home on the Westside.

A City of Atlanta employee and new mother, Michaela is beginning this next chapter with her daughter as a homeowner on the Westside. Her home represents an important step forward for her family and adds to the growing number of residents choosing to call this corridor home.

We’re honored to celebrate this moment with Michaela and to welcome her as a neighbor.

A Program Built Around Community

James P. Brawley Drive was identified by residents early on as a key corridor for renewed care and attention. Today, families like Leon’s and Michaela’s are part of that ongoing story — living, investing, and building their lives in the neighborhood.

Through Home on the Westside, Westside Future Fund supports people with ties to the historic Westside by creating pathways to quality, affordable homeownership and long-term stability.

We’re grateful to Leon and Michaela for trusting us to be part of their homeownership journey, and proud to welcome them home.
