Starting Point: . Neighborhood: .
Downtown Atlanta is the central business district of Atlanta, Georgia, United States. The largest of the city's three commercial districts, Downtown is the location of many corporate or regional headquarters; city, county, state and federal government facilities; Georgia State University; sporting venues; and most of Atlanta's tourist attractions. Downtown measures approximately four square miles, and had 26,700 residents as of 2010. Similar to other central business districts in the U.S., Downtown has recently undergone a transformation that included the construction of new condos and lofts, renovation of historic buildings, and arrival of new residents and businesses.
Attractions
Just north of Centennial Olympic Park is the Georgia Aquarium, the world's largest aquarium with more than 8 million US gallons (30,000 m3) of fresh and marine water. It is listed as one of the 1,000 Places to See Before You Die. The World of Coca-Cola, situated near the Georgia Aquarium at Pemberton Place, is a permanent exhibition to the history of Coca-Cola. Downtown is in the process of bringing new attractions to the area, particularly in the area clustered around Centennial Olympic Park. In June 2008, Atlanta was selected for the future home of the National Health Museum. It will be near Centennial Olympic Park where it is estimated to attract between 1.1 and 1.4 million visitors per year.
Venues and convention centers
Downtown is home to all of the city's major sporting venues. The Georgia Dome, with a seating capacity of 71,250 is the largest cable-supported dome stadium in the world. Sitting on 8.6 acres (35,000 m2), It is home to the Atlanta Falcons, the city's NFL team. The Georgia Dome also hosts other sporting events, such as the NCAA Chick-Fil-A Bowl, the NCAA Chik-Fil-A kickoff classic, the SEC Championship game, and the home games of Georgia State University football. In its vicinity is Philips Arena, the home of the Atlanta Hawks, the city's NBA team, and the Atlanta Dream, the city's WNBA team. It opened in September 1999 and has the following capacities: Hockey, 18,750; Basketball 18,729; Concerts 21,000. It is located directly across Centennial Olympic Park Drive from the CNN Center. Just south of Interstate 20 is Turner Field, home to the Atlanta Braves, the city's MLB team. It is capable of seating 50,096.
The Tabernacle, located on Luckie Street, is a music concert hall built in 1910 for the Tabernacle Baptist Church. In 1996 it was converted into a House of Blues Club for the Olympics. It was renamed The Tabernacle in 1998. The concert hall is four stories and can seat 2600.
Clustered around the Georgia Dome and the CNN Center, the Georgia World Congress Center is a state-owned convention center. Opened in 1976, it was the first state owned and operated major convention center in the United States. As the fourth largest convention center in the United States and with 1,400,000 sq ft (130,000 m2) of space, more than a million people attend conventions at the Georgia World Congress Center annually, and as many 125,000 people attend a single event.
Retail
Located near the MARTA Five Points Station, Underground Atlanta is Downtown's shopping and entertainment district. During the 1920s, streets in the area were raised above the ground (and the railroad tracks) for a better flow of traffic. Under these viaducts is a district for entertainment and shopping. It contains retail stores, restaurants that serve a variety of different foods, and several nightclubs in Kenny's Alley. The Mall at Peachtree Center, located on Peachtree Street, has 60 specialty shops, including six full-scale restaurants, as well as a regular food court, a conference center in the South Tower. It also includes the Peachtree Center Athletic Club, which contains a 72,000-square-foot (6,700 m2) full service athletic facility. Transit access is provided MARTA's Peachtree Center station that is directly connected to it.
Little Five Points in Atlanta
Little Five Points (also L5P or LFP or Little Five or Lil' Five) is a district on the east side of Atlanta, Georgia, United States, 2 1⁄2 miles east of downtown. It was established in the early 20th century as the commercial district for the adjacent Inman Park and Candler Park neighborhoods, and has since become famous for the alternative culture it brings to Atlanta. It has been described as Atlanta's version of Haight-Ashbury, a melting pot of sub-cultures, and the Bohemian center of the Southern United States.
The name is a reference to Five Points, which is the center of downtown Atlanta. Little Five Points refers to the intersection at the center of the neighborhood. Two points are provided by Moreland Avenue (U.S. 23 and Georgia 42), which runs perfectly north/south, and forms the county line dividing Fulton and DeKalb. Two points are provided by Euclid Avenue, which runs northeast/southwest. The fifth point was originally Seminole Avenue, which met the intersection from the northwest, but the Seminole point was converted to a plaza and there is no longer a five-point intersection, though some regard McLendon Avenue, extending east from Euclid's southern intersection at Moreland, as the new fifth point.
The first Atlanta streetcars were constructed just south of the Little Five Points in the 1890s. According to the National Park Service, as the population grew on Atlanta's east side, the area where the trolley lines converged became one of the earliest major regional shopping centers. Little Five Points thrived until the 1960s, when a proposed freeway through the heart of the district drove residents out of the neighborhood.[2]
By the 1970s, Little Five Points had fallen into disrepair. A revitalization began as urban pioneers moved into the then-cheap neighborhood and restored the Victorian-style homes. By 1981, local merchants formed the Little Five Points Partnership to continue the restoration and expansion of the retail area, turning what was formerly a gas station into the 484 retail area — several retail shops aligned in strip-mall style.

Third Wave Digital Campus Tours: Atlanta Metroplitan College AMCD
Atlanta Metropolitan College (AMC) came to the award-winning higher education web design firm, Third Wave Digital, in need of a complete website overhaul. After months of research, design meetings and on-location video shooting, Third Wave Digital (TWD) today announces the launch of the new AMC website, AMC is the latest website in a string of impressive, student-centered, interactive higher education websites from Third Wave Digital -- a company recently awarded with the prestigious Best of Show Interactive ADDY® award for university admissions website design.
Atlanta Metropolitan College realized that their current site was not engaging students as it should, the previous AMC website was difficult for students and faculty to navigate and important information was buried deep within the site's pages. Most importantly, AMC needed an appealing, student-centered component added to their website that would help attract new students.
To solve this problem, Third Wave Digital provided website design services that included a complete home page redesign and the creation of unique sub-page templates. To increase the interactivity so important for today's college bound students, TWD also incorporated custom Flash® animation, photo slideshows, an interactive campus map and a sixty second media presentation into the masthead of the home page of the site. Additionally, TWD provided script writing, full video production services, and post-production editing for the student tour presentation.
AMC's new website is a great example of how colleges can utilize the web to engage their current students and attract new ones, said Third Wave Digital Operations Director Carla Schwab.
On the technical end of this project, TWD provided complete coding and programming for the site navigation, HTML templates, communication forms and features listed above. TWD also provided AMC's IT Department with complete technical assistance in moving all files to the college's web server and setting up the new website.
