'This is about celebrating our city.'

RealCity is the brainchild of Ted Bradford, a native of Washington, D.C. who moved to Atlanta in 2005. With a Masters in Urban Policy Studies from Georgia State, experience in real estate brokerage and development, and as the former Chief of Staff to Councilmember Natalyn Archibong, Ted knows the ins and outs of city life and the political, market, and social forces that shape it. 

Ted started RealCity in order to put those principles into practice, to create the change that he wanted to see in the world around him and help others navigate the change in their own lives and businesses. “This is about celebrating our city... the 'Atlanta-ness,’” as he puts it, “that makes Atlanta remarkable.”

He serves as a partner at Constellations, a civic and social shared workspace founded by Gene Kansas. It provides a hands-on opportunity to work with some of the city’s most relevant “movers and shakers,” in the heart of historic Sweet Auburn.
