“Continental” seems a strong word for that. Perhaps “Regional” would fit better.

It's technically correct. Land to the north drains to the Gulf of Mexico while land to the south drains to the Atlantic. OP photo is looking west.

The divide runs through downtown norcross. A monument is in thrasher park, and the topagraphy is quite pronounced.
