A pink house near Howell Mill Road with “TRAP” written on it has become the latest tourist attraction in Atlanta. The pink home is gaining the attention of hundreds of people every day.
Atlanta's very own rapper '2 Chainz' used the pink home to host a private party for his latest album “Pretty Girls Like Trap Music,” released on June 16. Since then, the location has become a hot spot in the city.
“I didn’t think there was going to be a line, but everybody is pretty kosher, nice vibes, I mean it’s Atlanta, man,” said visitor and aspiring artist, Tae Fresh.
Several aspiring artists, photographers, and people who just want to take a picture in front of the house to post on social media are visiting the place.
“It's all over social media, everybody is posting pictures here,” said visitor Victoria Johnson.
But everyone is not happy with the gaining popularity of the place. Surrounding businesses are upset because there is not space to park, leaving visitors to park in the space owned by the businesses.
Businesses owner complain that their customers are leaving as there is no space left for parking.
Traffic in the area has also become a major concern as passers slow down to look at the house while others are stopping to take pictures from their cars.
Atlanta Police said that they have received several complaints, but they cannot do much because it is a private property.
A statement from an Atlanta Police Department spokesperson read in part:
“We will continue to monitor traffic in that area in an effort to mitigate any problems.”
Fans of the house said that, like much other attraction in a city, traffic will be a problem.
“Probably more and more people coming, this is just the beginning,” said Johnson.
Atlanta Councilwoman Felicia Moore said that she has not received any direct complaints, but was going to drive by the house to see it for herself.
A management team staffer for 2 Chainz said the house is rented through July 6, but they may extend the lease because it has been such a hit.
