I love that picture, thanks arjay! I would love to see more photos of the construction of MARTA and this general period in Atlanta. I have checked out the Atlanta time machine website and I don't remember seeing this one.

It was truly a cool project.

Here are a couple of others scrounged from the web.

One from the Daily Report showing work progressing on the Civic Center station:

And via Next Stop Decatur, a great photo depicting construction of the line through downtown Decatur:

(Sroll down for photo).

And a phenomenal photo of the Five Points station from the Atlanta History Center:
