Buckhead - Atlanta, Georgia

Buckhead's Roswell Road, veering north from its southern intersection with Peachtree Road in the heart of the village, is one of the fastest changing areas of the district.

New loft condos that look like they've been there forever compliment traditional complexes under soaring old oaks. Restaurants, diners, delis and unusual eating houses are thriving.

The look is eclectic and electric. Tattoo parlors jostle elbows with new trend-setting home design showrooms and shops offering hard-to-find architectural antique pieces. It's some of the best of Buckhead.
