Georgian Terrace Hotel
The Georgian Terrace Hotel in Midtown Atlanta, part of the Fox Theatre Historic District, was designed by architect William Lee Stoddart in a Beaux-Arts style that was intended to evoke the architecture of Paris. Construction commenced on July 21, 1910, and ended on September 8, 1911, and the hotel opened on October 2, 1911. The George C. Fuller Construction Company was contractor, and the developer was Joseph F. Gatins, Jr.
A 19-story wing, designed by Smallwood, Reynolds, Stewart,
opera stars until the opening of the Georgian Terrace in Midtown.
The architect was Willis F. Denny, who had also designed Rhodes Hall and the Kriegshaber House on Moreland Avenue, now the Wrecking Bar Brewpub. The hotel was renovated in 1928–1929 and demolished in 1963. Most of the site is now occupied by the Equitable Building at 100 Peachtree St. NE and a plaza in front of the building.
