Post World War II housing with modern styles available
Moore says, “Home sizes are larger in Doraville as opposed to Atlanta, but you’re seeing more townhouse developments there now.” Most homes in Doraville were built after World War II, during a construction boom spurred by the development of a General Motors assembly plant.
