Yet other vestiges remain of the March 14 2008 tornado that roared through the city center. ne can discern it in the occasional shard of hotel window hidden in the grass; in the torn magnolias where akland Cemetery’s dead rest; and in the memories of people who watched destruction come out of the dark. The storm damaged the Georgia Dome and forced the SEC Men’s Basketball Tournament to relocate to Georgia Tech. It shoved a steeple off a Vine City church. It collapsed a wall of a DeKalb Avenue store where Gregory Lee 45 and homeless tried to hide.
