But making the computer fit the districts to the "logo" is fun...
The C in the site icon is drawn from the council's own geometry rather than illustrated. The three concentric bands symbolize the three at-large posts. The twelve navy seams running through them are the twelve council districts — each one its real boundary shape, taken from the city's official council district layer and placed in district order from the lower terminal around to the upper. It is generated by a script straight from the same polygons the maps on this site use, so when the districts are redrawn, the mark changes with them.

Update : City Zoning data has been integrated, including map filters and Leaderboard summaries. who-owns-atlanta.org Base data has not changed. Individual & Institutional changes were made causing insignificant changes in overall numbers, though did cause some ownership links/urls to change.
A screenshot of the who-owns-atlanta.org map interface showing the new zoning filters. A dropdown menu is
  open with "Single-Family" selected under the "Home Type" category. In the background, a map of the Grove
  Park and Simsille neighborhoods displays individual property parcels color-coded in red and blue.

Burying part of the lede, Atlanta neighborhood demographics are included to enrich the picture of each ownership cluster. This is, for example, the summary included for our cluster named "RS RENTAL I LLC" who-owns-atlanta.org/owner/28/
A dashboard titled "Atlanta Portfolio Analysis" detailing the demographics and economics of neighborhoods where a real estate portfolio's 178 city parcels are located.

 - Tenure & Concentration: 54.2% of households in these neighborhoods are renters. The highest concentrations are in Arlington Estates, Wildwood Forest, and Swallow Circle/Baywood.
 - Racial Composition: The neighborhoods are predominantly Black (87.7%), followed by White (5.3%), Hispanic (4.4%), and Asian (0.5%).
