Yes, Bank of America Plaza is Atlanta's tallest at 1,023 ft., making it the tallest office building in the US outside of NYC and Chicago.

No, it's in Downtown, but only by 50 feet. North Avenue is the boundary between the two.

Very pretty:



Very ugly:


Sorry... I just think that BoA Plaza is a really poor excuse for the tallest scraper outside NY or Chicago. That scrap metal heap at its top is bullshit. Great photos of a thriving place.

LOL....BOA Atlanta is definitely an acquired taste. It is quite spectacular at night, though.

^ Spectacular at night because you can't see it!

Just kidding, it does look cool lit up at night.
