 "Industrial" style lofts are exactly what you think of when you hear industrial.  Industrial lofts in Atlanta consist more of the steel beams that run across the ceiling, an example would be Freedom Lofts in Poncey Highland or Dynamic Metals lofts located in the Martin Luther King District.

Many of the newly constructed lofts in Atlanta are considered "soft" lofts.  These types of lofts only have a couple characteristics of authentic loft and some of them don't have any features of loft but they threw in "lofts" in the name because they know that will grab more attention from buyers than what a condo would.  Examples of "soft" lofts are Lofts at the Belevedere and the Block Lofts.  Both of these are considered more of a condo than a loft so make sure that you get out there and look at all of the different style of lofts.  Some of them will be a better return of investment than others.
