In June 2018, my wife & I attended a Family Wedding at the Hilton Garden Inn, 275 Baker Street NW in Atlanta, Georgia. One end the hallway on the on the 13 Floor (they call it Floor PH) gave me a Great View of the CSX Tracks, while the other end of the hallway gave me a great view of the Skyview Ferris Wheel across the street from Centennial Olympic Park.

 

Since we were in Atlanta for several days, we had some time to visit the Atlanta Botanical Gardens, which which were located approx 3.2 Miles from our Hotel.
