Atlanta

Gonna take me a while to digest Atlanta. Managed 600 pics. I'll come back with more later.

Atlanta's best feature is its skyline and skyscrapers. Downtown also has a pretty nice, layered, dense, and especially tall skyline. Once you cross into midtown though it feels like all the tall buildings are built down 1 windy street. Seen from the highway (85 coming from the north especially) the city looks HUGE with the midtown 'scrapers in the foreground and the downtown skyline behind it.

Ok this is it for the time being. When I have time I am going to sort through these pictures. I'll link the final threads when I make 'em.

This last one is of the Buckhead skyline, a suburban skyline a few miles past midtown.

Some downtown density, culminating with one of the big's

Ah, Philip Johnson and his love of the Giant Order... (One Atlantic Center, 191 Peachtree)

Atlanta's skyscrapers have something in common too: most were proposed shorter than they were actually built. If only we had that problem here in Boston. I'd love to stretch 500 Boylston higher!

You mean something like this?
