Agreed. But, it's nice to have a central city area with high-rises. The problem, I find with Atlanta's development in the 90s is that the high-rises moved away from the city. This is a result, I'm afraid, of multi-jurisdictional zoning. The city couldn't control what wasn't built in the city- and still can't. I properly zoned city, IMO, includes a central city high-rise district, surrounded by low-rise developments. This enables the density required to make public transportation feasible. The "Atlanta" model is great for building towers- but bad for density- it leads to circles of growth only accessible by car. Our only "hope" now is for the city to grow into it-self- which is why low-rise, high-density is good to see. (Unfortunately, the zoning problems Atlanta Metro has will never be solved- the city/region missed many opportunities in the 60s/70s/80s to form a more modern form of multi-jurisdictional government. The backlash to this missed opportunity, IMO is the urbanization of suburban Atlanta, as seen in Sandy Springs, John's Creek, Milton.)
