VIRGINIA HIGHLAND. This chic neighborhood near Midtown boasts beautiful 1920s and 1930s homes that have been renovated and updated.

MIDTOWN. Pushing the envelopes of urban renewal and multi-use development, Atlantic Station stands poised to emerge as one of the nation's most dynamic districts. Reasons to visit this red-brick "city unto itself" are legion: Popular specialty stores like West Elm and Banana Republic stand alongside busy eateries like The Grape, California Pizza Kitchen, and Claddagh Irish Pub. There's also a 16-screen Regal Cinema, a grocery store, and the first IKEA in the Southeast. Atlantic Station is much more than an open-air shopping center, though, thanks to park areas, wide pedestrian-only corridors, and plenty of luxury lofts and apartments. Heck, the place even has its own zip code!

VININGS. Offering shopping with a touch of Southern charm, this open-air shopping center serves as the Vinings' unofficial "city center." The village was conceived in the mid-80s, and the developers went to great lengths to ensure that its buildings matched the architectural style of the area's historic homes. Adding to the village's sense of place are old fashioned street lanterns, a clock tower, brick sidewalks and attractive greenspaces. Among the retailers who keep shops here are Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, White House/Black Market and Antiques of Vinings.
