As promised, I continue publishing my “Atlanta Chronicles”, the series of photographs taken in my second hometown Atlanta. Today I post a set of photos related to the tallest buildings of Atlanta, photos of Atlanta skyscrapers or taken from the skyscrapers. I start with one of my favorites, a photo of Atlantic Station neighborhood in the beginning of its construction, taken on April 24, 2004. Today it is hard to recognize the west-side area of I-75 highway. The only building in the photo is the current WellsFargo high-rise, which has its initial sign ‘SouthTrust’ installed (later changed to ‘Wachovia’ and ‘WellsFargo’).
