Eberhardt, Judge.
The City of Atlanta proceeded to condemn for airport purposes a vacant lot of Clarence R. Adams, located on Erskine Drive in College Park, measuring 60 x 150 feet. Erskine Drive had been severed by the 1-85 limited access highway some years previously, and that portion on which condemnee’s property is located is a dead-end residential street, though the property has been zoned by Clayton County for in dustrial and commercial use. An award made by the special master was appealed to a jury, and after trial in Clayton Superior Court the condemnee entered this appeal.
