At least 5 million people would disagree...and if you're smart you make sure you don't have a commute, or live/work near transit, or commute against traffic, or locate in a less congested area, etc. - just like smart people do in other cities. You don't have to follow the lemmings to the worst congestion in the city.

If I'm not mistaken this is intended to be a photo thread...but I guess there are always those who choose to interject opinions where they aren't solicited.

The closest thing to NYC in the South is Canal Street in New Orleans.

Great photos of Atlanta though.

There is truly nothing like NYC in the South or anywhere in the U.S. I always cringe when someone calls Atlanta something with NYC in the name. Atlanta is Atlanta and not trying to be nor is it anything like NYC.

I've got plenty more Charlotte pics if you know a good place to post them.

I'm down in Atlanta on Monday, hoping to get a few pics if the weather holds out.

Been a long week, but finally managed to get around to looking through what I got. A quick snap from the roof of the Georgian Terrace Hotel (my future wedding venue):

Went here for my first time Thanksgiving weekend. Popped off ~600 pictures. Eventually I plan to make a whole thread! I'm just kind of lazy about it... (take too many pictures to sort through) Here's a few from that trip.

I've seen lots of pictures of how great of a city Atlanta can be, but these angles you captured have redefined it even more, desertpunk! Your angles are good, too, DZH22

Awesome pics, Atlanta looks so amazing... to visit, that is.

P.S. I really feel bad the city lost the Thrashers a couple of years ago.
