Were we discussing Chastain and Buckhead? No, we were talking about Ansley Park and Morningside, two 1920s neighborhoods that WERE suburban when they were developed, but the characteristics of suburbia have changed drastically since the early 1900s.
Your one neighborhood or one area of the city certainly doesn't make the entire city "suburban oriented". It's just another misconception that is being touted as reality - the very essence of a misconception.
So I cant add other neighborhoods that have a suburban feel besides those two?
Geesh, thanks for making up rules as you go along.
The fact that you are getting so incredibly defensive over this is telling...

What makes you say that I'M defensive? You're the one with the tone in your posts...
I'm telling you what I know about this city after living here for 20 years. You lived here for ONE year and you seem to think you know all there is to know about Atlanta. I'm sorry, but you have a misconception about the city - which is perfect for this thread title.
Wrong...this is a restaurant owned by Emily Saliers of the Indigo Girls. It serves dishes like organic oatmeal, free-range chicken sausage, and turkey bacon. Keep throwing out silly criticisms when you have no idea what you're talking about. It's fun!
But, the name is the Flying BISCUIT. Key word, BISCUIT.

Where did I claim that I know all there is to know about Atlanta? I would like to see where I typed that.
My posting has a 'tone' to it? Interesting.
You've lived in Atlanta 20 years, great. You have blinders on. Ive named 4 areas now that seem suburban to me and you brush them off as being a 'different type of suburban.' Guess what, 'different type of suburban' is still suburban. I could name about 15 more. But honestly, why bother.

What a silly assumption - that I have "blinders on" because I've lived in this city for a few years and I'm very familiar with it. Believe your misconceptions if you like...that is what they are all about.
Did I say that you think you "know all there is to know about Atlanta"? Nope...you said that. I said that you seem to think you know more about the city than I do with your ideas about what is located here and what it means. You don't.
Yes, your posts have an irritated and frustrated "tone".
