Hey Irony.....
I loved the Profile.
For finer hotels, don't forget the Four Seasons in Midtown, the Grand Hyatt and Intercontinental in Buckhead.
Also on the Parks worth visiting section, don't forget about Chastain Park....which is also an ampitheater.
Oh yeah...my favorite radio...90.1's call letters are WABE.

Have you been to the movies lately? I've seen a preview for a new movie called ATL. It will hit the theaters at the end of the month. I'd Also add Tyler perry's Madea's Family Reunion.

Alright, thanks for the help again everyone. 
I've done what I can to add what you've suggested onto it.
Tonight, I added a link to the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce's website, a couple of links to travel guides on Atlanta in the "Useful Atlanta Websites" section, a list of major cemeteries in Atlanta, and a couple of new events (the St. Patrick's Day and Fourth of July Parades) to the profile.
Everything I've added is marked with the word NEW!!!!
Keep me filled in. I certainly try to add anything new I find.

A couple of additions to a great source of Atlanta information...
Freedom Park
Clayton State University
**I'm thinking the date is incorrect on 191 Peachtree...I moved here in 1989 and I remember seeing it built, I believe in 1991 or 92.

Another addition...well, more of a change. Change the MARTA map to the current one that shows all 4 separate lines (W-E, NW-E, N-S, NE-S)

^^Thanks! I'll take note of that for the next time I add an update.
I have just taken out the "Useful Atlanta Threads" section and replaced it with a link to the "Atlanta Topcis Directory".
Also, I have added 97.1 The River to the radio stations list.

IC, on the Ten Tallest Skyscrapers you list the Bellsouth tower, well at&t has already put up their name and logo on top of the building. It is now the at&t Tower. But great job on this project, you said there was more to come but I had no idea it was going to be this intense and awesome, way to go. This will add quite a boost to the Atlanta Forum, once again thanks for all of the research and hard work that went into this. Your forumers greatly appreciate it!!!
