From Wikipedia:
Buckhead is the uptown commercial and residential district of the city of Atlanta, Georgia, comprising approximately the northernmost fifth of the city. Buckhead is the third largest business district within the Atlanta city limits, behind Downtown and Midtown, a major commercial and financial center of the Southeast.
Buckhead is an example of an edge city, anchored by a core of high-rise office buildings, hotels, shopping centers, restaurants and condominiums centered around the intersection of Peachtree Road and Piedmont Road near Georgia State Route 400, Buckhead station, and Lenox Square.
At the heart of Buckhead around the intersections of Lenox, Peachtree and Piedmont Roads, is a shopping district with more than 1,500 retail units where shoppers spend more than $3 billion a year. In addition, Buckhead contains the highest concentration of upscale boutiques in the United States. The majority are located at Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza, sister regional malls located diagonally across from each other at the intersection of Peachtree and Lenox Roads. The malls are home to designer boutiques, mainstream national retailers, as well as six major department stores. This commercial core also has a concentration of "big-box" retailers. The "Buckhead Atlanta" mixed-use development brought even more exclusive boutiques, restaurants, hotels, condos and office space to the heart of Buckhead in 2014. The name of the project was rebranded as 'Buckhead Atlanta'.

Buckhead is also a center for healthcare, and is home both to Piedmont Hospital and the private, catastrophic care hospital Shepherd Center which specializes in spinal cord injury and acquired brain injury. The two hospitals are located adjacent to one another along Peachtree Road. (This location is known as "Cardiac Hill" by runners of the annual Peachtree Road Race.)
Buckhead is also the location of a large share of Atlanta's diplomatic missions. Consulates in Buckhead include the Consulate-General of Australia and the Australian Trade Commission, the Consulate-General of France and the French Trade Commission, the Consulate-General of Brazil, the Consulate-General of Japan, and the Consulate of Greece.
While much of west and north Buckhead is preserved as single-family homes in forested settings, the Peachtree Road corridor has become a major focus of high-rise construction. The first 400-foot (121 m) office tower, Tower Place, opened in 1974. Park Place, built in 1986, was the first 400+ foot (121+ m) condominium building. 1986 also saw the completion of the 425-foot (129 m), 34-story Atlanta Plaza, then Buckhead's tallest and largest building. In 2000, Park Avenue Condominiums pushed the record to 486 feet (148 m). Since that time, a wave of development has followed. The 660-foot (201 m) Sovereign and 580-foot (177 m) Mandarin Oriental, now renamed the Waldorf-Astoria, were completed in 2008. Many luxury high-rise apartment buildings have been built recently, including the 26-story Post Alexander High Rise in 2014 and the 26-story Skyhouse Buckhead in 2014. Today, Buckhead has over 50 high-rise buildings, almost one-third of the city's total.
I usually fly to Atlanta every Thanksgiving to go to Atlanta The Holiday Home. I couldn't this year for obvious reasons. This right here was my exhale my good Sir. I LOVE driving through Buckhead looking at all the Mansions. It's my favourite thing to do. Thank you for taking the time to do this for us. My favourite City aside from home.
No problem 👌
I used to live there. By Chastain Park. I miss Buckhead. Thinking about moving back. Beautiful area. 💖
I mean it is the safest place in Atlanta I’ll give you that.
City of trees, flowers, exotic birds, and butterflies.
Typical Atlanta driving move at 4:35😂
I’m from New York, the cabs do that all the time! Hate it!
That's everywhere now, that could've ended badly. Idiot's
@@bl6797 I feel you.
Alot of people from New York east been moving to Atlanta for years
Amazing to see what is still there and what's new. Used to turn north of Peachtree Dunwoody and lived right off that near Club drive. I do miss the trees but don't miss the narrow winding roads of Atlanta. Now, I live in Las Vegas and a lot of people from Atlanta have moved out here.
We used to live off of West Wesley Road in Atlanta. In a condo by a golf course. Canty Place. Loved it. We lived around the block or near where Janet Jackson's mansion was. Loved Atlanta. It was beautiful too..with all the trees and what not. So many Peachtree streets lol. Just an awesome city and place to live.
Genderfication has ruined the place kris Kross was from Atlanta big in the 90’s from 1992 till 96.
Thank you for sharing this. Brought back so many memories...
You’re welcome
Beautiful. This neighborhood very much remind me of the Memorial/ Memorial Villages area of Houston....minus the hills. 😊
Atlanta is truly sub-tropical!!
Never been to ATL but looking forward to it tho
You love it man i want to go again!
Can you drive through some of the neighborhoods in Buckhead please to see the beautiful homes and stuff, thank you ☺️
In this area most of the houses are estates so they would have to have side view cameras because the homes to see line the streets. Most have VERY long driveways as well. The "neighborhood" per se is where he is, its just a front cam isnt going to show the homes.
Buckhead in 1969 was an intersection- which had a nice modern Sears store and a Brennan's New Orleans restaurant as well as the Capri Theater.
Did they have a monster truck rally and sports arena
Buckhead looks real nice.
Yet another beautiful drive! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Passed my work three times. Once @10:00 and then again @22:45 and again @103:00 I could see where I was parked so I’m sure this was either on a weekend or before noon. Very nice quality footage. Too bad Buckhead is swiftly becoming Buckhood.
I heard how it's changing. What is happening?
@@Strongpoeticmind poor city leadership is the main issue. They can’t handle the huge influx of people the city has seen over the years.
Mad Man Mountain Mileage Mike is doing Hotlanta baby!
Yes you can drive though Wesley ave and Peachtree and pine
Great place to live. Moving back as soon as we see where this sketchy housing market goes. Mike gotta get that buckhead skyline night shot from the 400 coming from downtown.
I haven’t seen that view before. If I get a chance to come through ATL again in the next couple months I’ll definitely have to capture it.
I mean it looks better coming from Sandy Springs
Lol
@@user-hf3eb8lj5g I have to agree. I live up 400, and the views going south are a lot better than going back north.
I love Buckhead always visit friends there whenever am in town for NE , my only issues is that your camera gets a bit out of focus sometimes but everything else is gr8
Yeah I was testing out a new setup when I filmed this one. I might do an updated video at a later point.
I wonder if Buckhead has any humorous nicknames...
at 02:17 the high rise condo on the left side of the screen, to top floor is owned by Elton John and he says it's his home base in the United States.
Cool Drive
I live near Buckhead, I stay literally around the corner from Steve Harvey, it's used to be Tyler Perry homes. Its huge!
You must be rich
There was that square foot msnsion where evander holyfield once lived in it which Rick ross lives there now. Where coming 2 America sequal superfly and the Black panthers movie was shot. In the 90’s I guess that movie fled was also shoot there when they had that old sports center in Atlanta back then
Next...Charleston, South Carolina??😶🌫🙃😊...me Love me some small towns🤩🤩🥰😊
I was there in 2016 and 2019

Helava Tour of metro Atlanta!!!!

Do anyone see the car disappear or vanish in this video at the beginning it's on the corner you'll see a black dude walk across the street in a blue shirt keep watching you'll see a car turn right and disappear
It's just the editing.

I travelled Buckhead many times. it's beautiful city. It's way better than NYC, Dubai, Shanghai, etc. What does Buckhead need? Free self driving cars for disability families and senior in disabled. Once you put that thing in Buckhead City. People and Countries would get jealous. Who cares.
More to offer as well
Way better then Philadelphia it seems other parts of Atlanta are like shanty towns pretty much rundown
Buck-head is a rich part of Atlanta
Dubai and shangai are nothing compared to Buckhead
Anyone who's here that can help a very young Energizer guy to get Uber or delivery job in US..Am gonna pay in return... Please

Nice Video.But it looks like You A Color in Your videos
For me does not look Good.may you Remove??
I'm not sure what you're asking?
@@MileageMikeTravels I think he thinks the filter is a bit blue / grey. Like over exposed. As it's a bit bright
@@Shawn-xg8dq Oh ok that makes sense. I suppose it was the language barrier.
Dirty mirror
Your title is mis-speled: it's "Buckhood"
No, it's Buckhead. Don't confuse all of those thugs who gravitate toward Lenox to represent an entire area.
It's Buckhead with rich rich money get it right
@@Boxhead42 Sorry, you be right. have fun jogging on the road, watching a movie at Phipps, parking at Lenox ...
@@quentin3964 true
@@Boxhead42 they pretty much in south Atlanta
Not quite the "Bankhead" we all know and love is it. By the way, does ANYBODY at all, know what the *#☆&%* happened to all those BLM $$BILLIONS$$ anyway?
John Roper you need to go into hospice. This isn’t Bankhead. The BLM damage in Atlanta was a single Wendy’s that caught fire during a protest and was covered by insurance. Not exactly the billions of dollars and riots in the streets your media has been spoonfeeding you huh 🙄
@@winspaarkiebarkiebarker *Sorry, CZcams just doesn't allow me to tell you where you can go.*
