I don't consider those to be Northeastern characteristics; those are characteristics of a typical historic urban business district. You can find such in New Orleans, Richmond, San Francisco, Kansas City, Detroit, Tulsa, Baltimore, or Philadelphia. That's not exclusive to the Northeast.
I think as Atlanta increases in density, the northeastern city it will resemble will be Boston. I think they have the same type of spaghetti road network. Philadelphia is more gridded, right? I could be incredibly wrong.
then you'll love how dc was a southern city before this thread and will still be a southern city long after this thread.
No it won't, at least not to the DC City-Data natives. That is unless some consensus was formed from all the " is DC southern" threads that were here before I gave up on the City vs City board.

Well, that's not really the same thing, but that's okay. We see what you're saying.
That New Orleans comparison was dead on, though.

I get where he was trying to go, but it didn't make it completely.
I assume he was reaching for something similar to this..? Google Maps or Google Maps

Well I guess it didn't look as dilapidated as the New Orleans scene lol. But the density with the homes shoulder-to-shoulder, and the little brick complex looked very NO.

Didn't see it, me. I knew where it was going, but it was too many details in the picture that said otherwise, things you'd never see in both settings. I mean there was a little similarity, but only vaguely.
I mean we could say that I'm knitpicking or paying to much attention to the details, but it's the details that make Atlanta Atlanta and any other city any other city.
This is more like shoulder-to-shoulder though Google Maps
