The July 1983 DHA newsletter has a few interesting pieces of information. There is mention of Players Video Arcade going out of business in 1983. 1983 was the death of many arcades due to home video systems gaining popularity. Dunwoody's arcade was where the BP gas station is located (5400 Chamblee Dunwoody Road at Mt Vernon, across from Dunkin Donuts). Tilt arcade was in Perimeter Mall.
There is also a mention of researching to classify the then Dunwoody Elementary School as a historical monument. I'll post those documents soon. Also mentioned for historical classification for the Spruell (sic) farm house and that Mr. Spruill wasn't a fan of the DHA.
