Thanks for the links. I haven't lived in Atlanta for 8 years and when I go back to visit family so much has changed. Its nice to know that people are thinking about this issue.
As for the ridiculous comment. I'm actually from Buckhead, grew up on E Wesley Road, graduated from North Fulton High School and used to hand out at the Lennox video arcade (when there was one) during my junior high days. I lived in this area before there many towers and before GA 400 was built and when there was a car dealership on the corner of piemont and peachtree instead of hotel Nikko well, I guess its called the Hyatt now. Before GA 400 was built, I used to walk to the end of E Paces Ferry road through some woods to reach the mall. I am old school Buckhead and I have seen Lenox Square evolve from a mall with mostly trees around it to an edge city with little cohesion. I feel that my synopsis and opinion of the area is completely legitamate.
