Here are some pictures I took inside a cityview room at the Fairfield Inn on Paces Ferry Road on the W/NW side outside the city in Smyrna. I absolutely love this view from Paces Ferry. If the city add a few more buildings in between the Downtown/Midtown and Buckhead skyline, this is continue to truly be a world class skyine.

I could not get a full picture of Downtown to Buckhead, however I did get some of Buckhead in a picture. I am always seeing pictures on here of Atlanta skyline, but not very many viewing it from out NW.

Yeah, I love the views from there. What's even cooler is if you ever get a chance to go to the Home Depot corporate office right there, you can see all of the N. Georgia mountains too. One side you see all of downtown, the other the mountains. I think it's one of the most unique vantage points you can find.

If you're a skyline fan, go to the Legoland website and vote for what Atlanta landmarks you'd like to see included in the new creation at Phipps.

Which Atlanta Landmarks Would You Like to See in Legos?

Thanks for merging the my pics with the Atl photo sticky, I would have been doing it on another day, and yes I am aware of that photo thread. I uploaded a pic or 2 in there a couple months back.

I took the liberty of very quickly, and sloppily, stiching together your shots of Downtown/Midtown and Buckhead in to one so the skyline could be seen full on. There are few building missing in the the in between part around Peachtree Battle, but I think this gives a good idea. Hope you don't mind.

I think it's pretty cool, but I wish you did have those few buildings in there, that would just be beautiful because of the clarity of his pictures you can clearly make out all of the buildings and that would have been the first one I would have seen where you could do that with the entire skyline.
