History
The Fourth National Bank opened this building on the corner of Marietta
and Peachtree streets in the early 1900s. Several floors were added in
1928. In 1966 the bank built a 41-story tower adjacent to its home, reducing
the height of the original building by half and resurfacing it in the
white marble that covers it today. Architect: Cecil A. Alexander
The new building wins raves:
- “Faculty and research associates who before had been in different
buildings started collaborating in new ways — from the very first
day!”
- “It feels so good to know that everyone we meet in the elevators
is part of the same college, the same mission.”
- “The open-access computer labs are used by students night and
day.”
- “Graduate students often gather in the Cyber Student Lounge
at lunchtime, holding lively conversations on global topics.”
- “The seminar space on the 7th floor has changed the feel of
our seminars: no more worries that you can’t see – or hear
– the presenter!”
