The 133,000-square-foot, 17-story William Oliver Building was built by Atlanta's legendary Healey family in 1930. The name was inspired by two Healey family grandsons, William and Oliver. Recently, The William Oliver won a Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation Outstanding Achievement Award for Rehabilitation. Original design features include hand-tooled metal and hand-carved granite and marble on the exterior, hand-tooled brass inside and marble and travertine floors. The William Oliver is located at the gateway of downtown's Fairlie-Poplar Historic District. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it combines the best of old-world charm with modern day amenities. Completely renovated in 1996, this classic 1930's architectural gem is the finest remaining example of classic Art Deco design in Georgia. The lavish Art Deco lobby with authentic murals and façade creates a classic and welcoming tone for residents and guests and the grandeur of a bygone era. There are eight floor plans of studios, one- and two- bedroom homes and six penthouses ranging from 465 to 1,310 square-feet. Several condominiums have original glass office doors, one still bearing the name of its corporate occupant. The building combines the best of the old world charm with modern day amenities. The seventeen floors are a masterpiece of hand curved granite and limestone. Original terrazzo marble floors and hand curved brass elevators and building ornamentations. Soaring ceilings heights and oversized windows create the expansive urban flair, fused with standard finishes and upgrades including stainless steel appliances, exotic floorings such as bamboo, Portuguese cork and Italian limestone, granite and Corian countertops, Shaker & Winstead 42-inch kitchen vanity cabinets, designer faucets and under mount stainless kitchen & porcelain bath sinks. Since 1930, The William Oliver has proudly stood on the historic corner of Peachtree and Marietta Streets. The William Oliver sits within Fairlie Poplar, once Atlanta's financial district, now its first true urban neighborhood. From the grand entry with bronze canopy and formal security to the rooftop deck, The William Oliver is stylishly approachable and an appealing alternative to life outside the city. Adjacent to the extended campus of Georgia State University, The William Oliver boasts a one-of-a-kind location strategically situated between Centennial Olympic Park and Woodruff Park. You can't help but enjoy outdoor concerts, eclectic art galleries, nearby theaters, museums and even front row rooftop seats to fireworks from Turner Field, Centennial Park, and Underground Atlanta (NY’s Eve Peachdrop!). The William Oliver features uniformed security, an outstanding rooftop landscaped deck with unmatched breathtaking citywide views, business center, vending area, pet friendly atmosphere, storage rooms, spacious fitness center, basic cable TV, community intranet and high speed internet service. A builder of downtown lofts since the late 1980's, developer Rick Skelton conceived the William Oliver Building project with its original owner, James Cumming, as "a partnership of housing and retail expertise working together to build a more vibrant, 24-hour downtown." Financed through an Urban Residential Finance Authority tax-exempt bond, The William Oliver project reflects a national trend toward redevelopment of neglected downtown properties into loft space. One of the city's few remaining skyscrapers of its era, the building is one of the largest surviving examples of what Skelton calls the "true classic deco style" of architecture, which was meant to "show what machines were capable of doing" in the realm of architectural design. Jason Moss of Rowhouse Design Group, in collaboration with Stang & Newdow, designed the project, which included restoration of an expansive deco mural on the lobby ceiling, where two large chandeliers also were refurbished. "We restored the lobby to its pristine form," Skelton said. Skelton Development has received numerous prestigious awards for their achievements in historically sensitive renovations like 90 Fairlie, Deer Lofts, and Stonewall Battery. Skelton Development chose Rowhouse Architects, an Atlanta firm known for their innovative urban designs for new and historic projects. Exclusive sales and marketing for The William Oliver was provided by Coldwell Banker The Condo Store, recognized as Atlanta's experts and premier marketer of condominiums, lofts, luxury high rises, cluster and townhomes. Skelton describes the interior spaces of the units as having a "soft" loft attitude with soaring ceilings, oversized windows for spectacular citywide views, and minimal exposed duct work. While retaining the original terrazzo marble floors and classic art deco lobby, the William Oliver offers buyers the opportunity to upgrade the interiors of their units for a very modern feel with stainless steel appliances and exotic floorings such as bamboo and Portuguese cork. In addition to modern aesthetics, the William Oliver offers modern technology with high speed internet services and cable TV. "The unique historic design of The William Oliver was a selling factor for the development," says Skelton. "No one could afford to build a lavish lobby of its type with granite and solid brass today. The facade of hand-carved granite and limestone is impossible to replicate and the building would have cost a fortune. Furthermore, the new urbanist concept dictates that people miss a sense of place and community. In redeveloping historic structures, we are giving people just that - their own place in history. " "The William Oliver is the largest art deco building in the South," says Skelton." The lobby and entry awning is solid brass, and it has the largest art deco mural in the South. This was the site of Atlanta's first election in 1832." "Downtown Atlanta offers residents a true Chicago-New York style environment," says Skelton. "Loft living has come into vogue, and tax incentives in the historic properties make living in urban Atlanta less expensive than their Midtown and Buckhead counterparts. Georgia State University is the catalyst for growth, and the University's move into Fairlie-Poplar is likened to New York University migrating into New York City's Soho district ." "We've got people living downtown now, and the next evolution is pets downtown," said Skelton. "With Woodruff, Centennial and Piedmont parks right here, Intown is a wonderful place for pets."Skelton says he regularly encountered potential buyers who hesitated to commit to a condo because they owned a pet. "I had to tell them that people do live downtown with pets," Skelton said. "Particularly people who live in suburbia think that just because they have a dog or a cat, they need a yard. But in the studies we've looked at, between 15 and 20 percent of the people in lofts and condos have some sort of pet. And to entice those buyers, you needed to have a pet-friendly environment." Today, The William Oliver is home to 115 upscale residential units with security and a "lock and leave" lifestyle for its residents. Business professionals, airline pilots, government employees, empty nesters and even second home owners can conveniently walk to work as well as to artistic and entertainment venues for after hours enjoyment.
The Healey Building, at 57 Forsyth Street NW, in the Fairlie-Poplar district of Atlanta, was the last major "skyscraper" built during the first great burst of multi-story commercial construction preceding World War I. In fact, it was World War I, which led to the alteration of the original design, which called for twin towers connected by a rotunda. Only the west tower and rotunda were constructed before World War I broke out. The death in 1920 of William Healey forestalled continuation of the project after the war. According to Dr. Elizabeth Lyon in her National Register of Historic Places nomination, "The Healey Building has an elegance and high shouldered dignity which make it outstanding among its contemporaries." Those contemporaries include the Chandler, the Flatiron and Hurt Buildings among others. Although certainly distinctive for its physical appearance and location, the Healey Building is also associated with significant individuals in Atlanta history. Thomas G. Healey and his son William T. Healey were political and business leaders in the city - in the case of Thomas, dating back to pre-Civil War times. Their contributions to Atlanta's architectural history as contractors and businessmen are numerous and significant. In addition to the Healeys, the architects Thomas Morgan, John Dillon, and Walter T. Downing have left an important body of works as monuments to their skill and abilities.Born in 1818, Thomas G. Healey moved to Savannah, Ga. in 1846, from Connecticut. A few years later, he was in Atlanta working in the brick-making business and as builder/contractor in partnership with Maxwell Berry. Healey and Berry were responsible for a number of Atlanta churches and government buildings prior to the war, including the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Trinity Methodist Church, First Presbyterian Church, and the United States Custom House (later City Hall). Following the destruction of the war, Healey was in the perfect business for the construction boom of the late 1800s, which rebuilt Atlanta. As his wealth accumulated, T. G. Healey became active in politics and other business ventures. One investment was in land, including the northwest corner of Marietta and Peachtree Streets where he built the first Healey Building. This location was the place where Atlanta's first elections were held in 1848 and where T. G. Healey's grandsons (William and Oliver) built the William-Oliver Building in 1930. From 1877 to 1882, Healey was president of the Atlanta Gas Light Company. In the 1880s, he was president of the West End and Atlanta Street Railroad Company, on the Executive Committee of the 1881 International Cotton Exhibition, and a Director of Joel Hurt's Atlanta Home Insurance Company (of which he was a purchaser of $5,000 in original stock). Politically, he was city alderman- at-large (1881) and mayor pro tem (1884). By 1889, the Atlanta Constitution was estimating Healey's wealth at between $500,000 and $1,000,000 - thus making him one of the fifteen richest men in the city. During this period, William T. Healey joined his father in his many business ventures, which still included brick making and real estate development. Among their joint enterprises were the Atlanta Car Works streetcar line (1892) and the development of a mineral water property, Austell Lithia Springs. After Thomas Healey's death in 1897, William carried on the family businesses, which came to include the new Healey Building of 1914. Excavations took most of 1913 and the project became known as "Healey's Hole," with seventy (seven feet square) wells filled with concrete reaching a depth of sixty feet.

The Capital City Club is a private social club located in Atlanta, Georgia. Chartered on May 21, 1883, it is one of the oldest private clubs in the South.HistoryAccording to its charter, the purpose of the club is "to promote the pleasure, kind feeling and general culture of its members." Harry C. Stockdell was the club's first president. He was succeeded in 1884 by Robert J. Lowry; and in 1885 Livingston Mims began the longest term as president, serving, with a two-year interruption, from 1886 through 1906.

The Supreme Court of Georgia is the highest judicial authority of the US state of Georgia. The court was established in 1845 as a three-member panel. Since 1896, the justices (increased in number to six, and then to seven in 1945) have been elected by the people, and today those elections are non-partisan. Three of the state's seven sitting Justices were re-elected, all unopposed, in 2012.The first Chief Justice of the Court was Joseph Henry Lumpkin, who was appointed in 1863. There have been 27 Chief Justices, and the current Chief Justice of the Court is Hugh P. Thompson.Bar admissionsThe Supreme Court of Georgia is unusual among state high courts in that it does not admit new lawyers to the state bar. Instead, new lawyers are admitted to practice by the superior court of a county where they live or wish to practice. The new lawyers must separately seek admission to the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court.

AT&T Midtown Center I is a 206.4m, 47-story skyscraper in Midtown Atlanta, Georgia. Completed in 1982, it serves as the regional headquarters of BellSouth Telecommunications, which does business as AT&T Southeast, and was acquired as part of AT&T's acquisition of BellSouth. BellSouth Corporate headquarters was located in the Campanile building, also in Midtown.BackgroundThe company, then called Southern Bell, originally planned to build the parking deck for the tower one block further east at the corner of Ponce de Leon Avenue and Peachtree Street. This would have required the razing of the historic Fox Theatre which would have been an especially great loss to the city after the downtown Loew's Grand Theatre was destroyed by fire in 1978. Tremendous opposition, protests, fundraising, and petition drives within the community prevented the Fox's demolition. Even Liberace spoke out on behalf of the "Fabulous Fox". In the end, a complicated deal was struck to build the parking deck on an alternate site north of the main tower on West Peachtree Street.
The 688 Club was a popular alternative music venue in Atlanta, Georgia, located at 688 Spring Street, near the intersection of Spring and 3rd Streets. The 688 Club opened in May 1980 and closed in November 1986. The club was operated by Steve May. The club was co-owned by Tony Evans, John Wicker, and in its final years by Mike Hendry. Cathy Hendrix served as the club's music director. During its brief lifetime, the 688 played host to hundreds of punk rock, new wave and alternative rock bands - many of whom would later become world-famous.During the early 1980s, the 688 Club was the primary place for up-and-coming bands from Atlanta and Athens, Georgia, to get noticed. Among the groups that regularly played there were R.E.M. and Pylon. The club spun off an independent record label, 688 Records, which survived for a time even after 688 Club had closed its doors. Dash Rip Rock's self-titled debut LP was the first album released by 688 Records.After 688 ClubThe club re-opened as the "686 Club" on December 31, 1986 but was renamed "The Rollick" the next day. By 1990, the space was occupied by a club called "Weekends". The club operated as an industrial/goth club known as Tyranny from 1995 - 2000. The space was later occupied by Outa Control Inc. Sometime thereafter, the original building was extensively remodeled, and houses a Concentra urgent care medical facility.
Georgia Tech's main campus occupies part of Midtown Atlanta, bordered by 10th Street to the north and by North Avenue to the south, placing it well in sight of the Atlanta skyline. In 1996, the campus was the site of the athletes' village and a venue for a number of athletic events for the 1996 Summer Olympics. The construction of the Olympic village, along with subsequent gentrification of the surrounding areas enhanced the campus.The Georgia Tech campus is located in Midtown, an area north of downtown Atlanta. Although a number of skyscrapers—most visibly the headquarters of AT&T, The Coca-Cola Company, and Bank of America—are visible from all points on campus, the campus itself has few buildings over four stories and has a great deal of greenery. This gives it a distinctly suburban atmosphere quite different from other Atlanta campuses such as that of Georgia State University.
