This 1971 photo looks south along  Peachtree Street, packed with cars, pedestrians and retail establishments, toward Margaret Mitchell Square and, in the distance, Five Points.  That's Peachtree Street on the left and Forsyth Street branching off to the right.  The lower photo, via Google Maps, shows a much less energetic street scene.  Photo credit: Dr. William A. Wood, courtesy of his son Andrew Wood.  To see how things looked from this perspective in 1961, head over here

And I should point out that this shot is almost identical to another of Dr. Wood's 1971 photos that was published a while ago here on the ATM.   Google map
