Atlanta, GA Street Tour: Freedom Pkwy to Downtown

[aRealJawjaPeach]

As much money as Atlanta gets out of us ATLians, they should be able to afford to reconstruct these ragedy streets.

[Freewayjim]

@aRealJawjaPeach I agree, our streets are not as nice as those in other cities I've seen, but we make up for it with our freeways :)

Love ATL. Your vids are great!!

[MuttleyMcLad]

cool vid. I'm from England!

[assaultislove]

Thanks for explaining that was an ice canopy. I couldn't for the life of me figure out what the hell that was

[JoeNJ1]

What day was this? Where's the traffic? Of course being here in Philly makes pretty much any place look like a breeze;

Thanks for posting,now I'm not as anxious about driving to Atlanta;

[Freewayjim]

This was Sunday a few weeks ago about Noon, the reason I went to film this part of town is because I knew traffic would be light.

[JoeNJ1]

That's deceptive...I wanna be prepared for the worst;

[NachoElMacho13]

For that they woulda had to take you out by Turner field and down Blvd. where they crossed at 1:01 also by Morland and the drive in theater and the big federal prison. Man i miss my city.

[NachoElMacho13]

(For the worse areas)

Great ride!

[mbowman928]

another great vid!

I absolutely love the view of the Atlanta skyline at 1:08! Sad I've never driven on the Freedom Parkway very often in my life, and hope to have a real-life opportunity to one day appreciate that view in person.

In your opinion, which freeway in the Atlanta area do you think offers the best view of the Atlanta skyline? I one day want to explore parts of the Atlanta area I know I haven't explored enough, and have read about online.

[Freewayjim]

I think the view you mentioned in this video is the best in the city. The views on I-75/85 North and South are very good as well.

The view from 17th Street looking east from US-41 (Northside Drive) is out of the way but well worth seeing.

[prfsnlwannabe]

Thanks for answering my queston, Jim! I'll remember to check out the view at the Northside Drive/17th Street intersection, if I get around to being in that area.

[Freewayjim]

It's just west of Atlantic Station near the Ikea, you come down a slight hill and get a wonderful panoramic view of Midtown & Downtown.

What the heck was that at 2:48?

Great Tour..Gunney

[riolindasucks]

I like how you got just about every light red.

[candygirl332]

another great job :D

[fldoughboy72]

This area is in a lot better shape since the tornado last year!

[aswchris]

Wow speed bumps in Atlanta, didn't know they had so many of those there. You should know the Netherlands has them every 200 feet or so in residential areas, and they drive you crazy!

[Bryant5493]

Yeah, those speed humps were through Centennial Olympic Park. There's a lot of pedestrian traffic there, so they want to make sure you give way to peds.

As always, Jim, nice video.
