Built in 1906 by Coca-Cola founder Asa Candler, this 17 story masterpiece is a prominent fixture on the Atlanta skyline. The elaborate detail on the white marble facade is a fine example of the style of the period, when functional buildings were designed as much for their aesthetic appeal as for their practicality. The tons of structural steel and iron used in construction is said to be twice the amount used in any other building in the Southeast. Today, the building houses private offices. The Atlanta Preservation Center's walking tours of the neighborhood include The Candler Building.
Edward C. Peters House was constructed in 1883 by local architect Gottfried L. Norrman. Set against the somewhat incongruous backdrop of Midtown's glass and metal skyline, the Victorian Queen Anne design is reminiscent of the shingle style, popular on the eastern seaboard during the latter part of the 19th Century. Also known as the Ivy Hall, this structure is a major landmark in Atlanta and an important historical site. The home is managed by Savannah College of Art and Design, who conduct tours of the house and organize various entertaining cultural events here.
This sprawling expanse in the heart of the city is home to some of Atlanta's most popular attractions, World of Coca-Cola and Georgia Aquarium. The area was once a prosperous business and residential quarter before falling into decline in the 1950s. The site was then acquired by the cola giant and named after the creator of its world-renowned beverage. The 20 acre (8.09 hectare) site today, offers a welcome getaway from the urban bustle of the city. Besides the renowned attractions, visitors can relax in the impeccably landscaped green spaces flanking the site.
