The City
At lanta's layout is confusing, following old Native American
trails rather than a logical grid system, with no fewer than 32
streets named "Peachtree"; take care to note whether you're looking
for Avenue, Road, Boulevard and so forth. The most important is
Peachtree Street , which cuts a long north-south swath
through the city. Sights are scattered, but relatively easy to
reach on public transportation. Once you're there, the
downtown area, the Martin Luther King Jr Historic District
ranged along Auburn Avenue , and the trendy neighborhoods of
Little Five Points and Virginia-Highland are all easy
to explore on foot.
