How far will the Atlanta suburban sprawl spread?

I'm a big fan of suburban town centers. The good ones can be pretty urban, whether they're on a large scale like Buckhead or Bellevue or just a few apartment and office buildings.

That said, nothing beats a good downtown...with the full retail spectrum, lots of tourists and business visitors, a huge office crowd, events, and so on. If all of that comes together the city has a big advantage.
