HA HA HA!!!! I think all the Mansion needs is to add a lil something to the crown like the Atlantic is all. Now the restaurant is another story.... has anyone ever seen this rendering of Streets Of Buckhead before......
Shonuffff....... Thats exactly what I had in mind...... After really studying the design more than a year ago I noticed how much the top of it looked to much like a face and I came up with this.........
That could be an Islamo-terrorist building. The gold thing on top looks sort of like a keffiyeh and the three windows below the mouth could be a goatee. Why isn't the mainstream media covering this?

I'm sure they will be all over it....and it will somehow be tied back to Obama.
Also, that rail network looks awesome, although I have to question the dearth of rail between the east coast and the Mississippi. The line running down from Chicago that terminates at Kentucky could extend through to Nashville and then down to Atlanta.
Either way, talk about reasserting the importance of cities!

I'd assume if we don't go completely broke first, this would be a little like the start of the interstate system where you get some basic, high use routes in place and hope to see it expand, eventually linking all of them together plus more links to places that aren't necessarily the largest cities.

Yes unfortunately I have. The two buildings closest to Peachtree have been cancelled...

Oh YEA, kind of like the way CNN, NBC, MSNBC, & everyone else in the world tied everything BAD to George Bush for 8+ years.
Pics of Dogwood Festival, Buckhead, etc. over the weekend.
Love how imposting 12th & MT is on this side of midtown skyline. Really, they should put this view (from high up) on postcards & calendars!
SPRINGTIME'S pretty (minus alergies)
Kinda cool how GOLD Mansion can appear.
Despite the bland surface & facade material, i love Mansion/Craft's landscaping & overall look.
Apologies for the blurry night shots.

The restaurant was really good, it also had more of a modern chic feel than the hotel. Other than the long wait, though I did have reservation, it was awesome.

Marta succeeding despite impediments put in place by the statehouse?

^^ I feel like there is a difference between playful and offensive... using vivid colors for the sake of using vivid colors isn't usually considered playful... unless you are Lichtenstein. ;-) That poor building is just awkward.
Actually i think it's fun looking, sorta Vegasy - i think we need more playfull architecture, more for Midtown though i guess.
I thought they built it like that, not painted it?
I remember watching them paint it (it had already been built for a while). I am all for playful, but I would love to know who picked that color palette and thought, "yeah, that looks spectacular."
