      @DieselDucy I got to a week or two ago. I was with my friend. Btw the mod is NOT holding up well. The glass cars are leaking water, pretty much every car has flooring issues, and car 8 has a bad machine bearing. The Hilton needs a complete overhaul. The Westin was modded only a few years apart, and those still run like butter even today.

    Too bad is was foggy, the view must be incredible on a clear day. Personally that's my favorite building in Atlanta, very unique design. The original lobby atrium had this huge "lagoon"/water feature, like 1/3rd of the floor space was taken up by water and there were these "pods" with little bridges that went out into the lagoon. Had a huge water fountain, lots of plants. Very 70's/80's, indoor water features were the thing back then. I can see why they ripped it out though, huge maintenance expense and makes the inside of the building humid/musty smelling.
