The Buckhead skyline from Lenox Square

I think the purpose of the Buckhead skyline is to further improve the view from the parking lot Atlanta's Lenox Square. Lenox is a people's palace. I'm not crazy about all the buildings but they are impressive. Enjoy the view next time you are at the mall.

Robert A. M. Stern's "The Mansion" is the belle of the ball. I can't tell which side is the front.


The Sovereign is the tallest in Buckhead and the strangest.


Terminus anchors the west.




The view from the Pink Pig is dramatic.

The railroad bridge on Ponce de Leon at Sears, Ford Factory Square, Paris On Ponce

We've driven under it hundreds, maybe thousands of times. Graffiti appears. It's the path of the beltline. Here's the view you've never seen between 2 of the great buildings on Ponce.



The Sears tower is always a beauty.

Dude Working WAY UP THERE on Corey Tower

On my way into town on Dekalb Avenue yesterday I stopped on the connector bridge. Was there somebody up there? 


Yep, there he is. Read more on the tower below.


The tower is 300 feet tall.


Looks like they've just lifted a panel.

There you go.

I hope he's taking some pictures.
