The Buckhead Village area feels pretty urban to me, as does the Peachtree corridor north and south of there.
Atlanta has tended to develop along its commercial corridors such as Ponce, Peachtree, Memorial and Northside, with single family neighborhoods around them. While we may never be "urban" in the sense of Philadelphia, NYC, Boston or Chicago, our style nonetheless offers a pleasant city experience.
