As many know, Atlanta is considered to be the South’s most vibrant city and the “New York of the South”. Business travelers put the city high on the list for business class hotels, shopping, restaurants and the Hartsfield-Jackson Airport.
The Georgia Dome, the Centennial Olympic Park, and the World Congress Convention Center produce one of the largest entertainment, sports, as well as convention centers in the world. There are over 1.5 million square feet of space found at the World Congress Center alone.
Events to mention taking place in Atlanta include ING Marathon and Half Marathon and the International Auto Show at the World Congress Enter. The marathon took in neighborhoods such as: Sweet Auburn, Fourth Ward, Inman Park, Five Points, Piedmont Park, and Virginia-Highlands, as well as Georgia Tech campus and the Olympic Centennial Park. 18,000 participants from around the world took to the streets on Sunday morning, March 21.
The 28th Annual Altanta International Auto Show held at the World Congress Center from March 19th to 28th. 27 manufacturers were represented with their latest models and prototypes. Antique cars, the collectible and the curious(?) was also displayed. Test drives were offered and fun was had by all. A quote for a trade in was available, too, of course…
