Great shots. I lived there for many years and recognize a lot of the sites. One of my good friends lives in one of the houses you shot. When the Olympics came in '96, I remember stating how Atlanta had the potential to be a world class city. I truly think it's on the way to becoming such.

I can't quite see it from my building, but I'll try to remember to look when I walk past there on the way home tomorrow night.

Removed by moderator. Please do not repost photos from virtual tourist - they are copyrighted. Post only photos that YOU have taken please. Thank you.

....on the left, the way it's illuminated there. I always thought it was real neat, sort of like a waterfall effect. The last time I was there, it wasn't lit up though, so I wasn't sure if they did anymore.

Oh, you mean on the back/Peachtree Center Ave. side. Yeah, they still do that as far as I know. I rarely think to look up when I'm walking past there, but I do remember seeing that staircase-effect lighting on in the last couple of months.

I know I put this in a thread, mostly to give a nod to Valentine's Day...a day late (I despise Valentine's Day) but then I thought it should go here, too.
