These are all private apartment complexes. I don't think they have enough notoriety. They may be mixed-income, but that doesn't seem to be significant enough to be a separate page.--

The significance is that these are all the communities that have arisen from razed AHA housing projects. It is an important component of an element in Atlanta that I am trying to document better: public housing and is successors. If deleted I will incorporate the same content and somehow link it to public housing. In addition I would have to create several articles about the individual communities which are officially recognized neighborhoods of Atlanta which would be inefficient.

Mmann, not sure what you mean: They don't need to be included on any templates. What do you mean exactly? Do you mean that the topic of "what came out of the AHA projects after they were demolished" is not significant enough to be deserving of its own article? (I would of course argue that they are, because the topic of public housing in Atlanta is complex and significant). Just want to make sure I understand what you mean.

Weak keep. This is potentially a very interesting topic and there seems to be lots of material out there that could be potentially incorporated into an article on the topic of mixed-income communities as a public housing strategy.
[1][2] However, I don't think the article articulates its subject and notability very well at the moment (the comments at this AfD do a better job of explaining it), and it's not clear to me that the topic should necessarily be limited to Atlanta, although (based on the sources) Atlanta may be an appropriate place to start. I guess the long list of Atlanta MICs is potentially a legitimate part of a more complete discussion of the concept of MICs, how they have been used in Atlanta, and how the same concept may have been used in other cities. (All of which seems to be out there, based on the search results previously noted.) I would be inclined to give
User:Keizers a lot of leeway here to keep developing the article.--

Keep. Agree with Arxiloxos. Article needs expansion with reliable sources discussing history, significance, and impact, but should be given a chance.
