yeah, i wouldn't call either example i posted a pseudo-downtown, clearly just edge cities. labtec mentioned the area around suntrust park (the battery) as being fairly lively during games, and it's ok as a fake town center i suppose, but of course not a real downtown.
buckhead is kind of a hybrid - i would say it's actually fairly walkable. you have a couple of a subway stations around the newer office district (not super walkable) but the village is a mile away, and that is quite walkable.
