Well, I am not from Atlanta, but I just visited on a business trip a couple of months ago. So, I am going to list the five things that Atlanta started/popularized/is synonymous with. 1) Sprawl and Horrible Transit 2) Parking Lots 3)A building named Flatiron that is short of being on the level of another city’s version 4) Maintaining deep southern culture even though it’s a large city, mainly because it’s only 75 miles from Alabama. 5) Ruining hip hop YouTube - Jermaine Dupri;Ludacris - Welcome To Atlanta

I have been to Atlanta and wasn't that impressed...it didn't feel like a city, its about 80 miles to cross the metro and its all low density, and the skyline, while not horrible, was pretty underwhelming compared to similar sized metros across the US....plus its only an hour from Talladega and you know what that means.

He's still going...Atlanta's Flatiron was built 7 years before NYC's, and he can't stand it.

We have already been through this argument. I am aware that the Atlanta version was made before the NYC version. I don't care. The real importance to me is the building that is larger, meaning height. Also, what the building is surrounded by. Those are the two factors that I am concerned about. I am done talking about this topic because you can't seem to comprehend it. I could care less, which one is built first. I care about the building that looks best in it's surroundings.

It hurts so bad! Take a pill and relax...NYC's wasn't the first. It's really ok, but the funny part is that you are so insecure about it you continue to bad-mouth the REAL one.
If we've been through, why do YOU keep bringing it up? If you bring it back, expect a response. Duh.
