ATLANTA — The Sun Dial Restaurant, Bar & View offers perhaps the best view of Atlanta.
The restaurant sits atop the 73-story Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel and has been spinning guests since it opened in 1978. The Westin was the tallest building in Atlanta until 1987; it is today the fifth-tallest building in Atlanta and the tallest hotel in the Southeast.

ATLANTA – The state of Georgia late Wednesday executed convicted cop killer Troy Anthony Davis. Davis was pronounced dead at 11:08 p.m., CNN reported. It was the fourth time since his 1991 conviction that Georgia officials sought to execute Davis. His execution was postponed the previous three times pending appeals. On Wednesday, Davis’ execution – originally scheduled for 7 p.m. – was delayed about four hours while state officials waited for word from the U.S.
Georgia officials have unveiled a comprehensive school safety plan that mandates statewide participation in a new student information-sharing and safety database and that penalties those who make terroristic threats.
