Fulton National Bank at 55 Marietta Street NW

Pictured here is the (former) Fulton National Bank, which was Atlanta's tallest building from the time of its completion until 1961, when a nearby bank, now known as One Park Tower, was finished.  It was built on the site of the old City Hall.  More information is available on the previous page.

At the bottom of the photo, the Henry W. Grady statue is visible.

Sorry about the lack of a contemporary photo to go along with this one.  Looks to me like perhaps this shot was taken from the 40 Marietta Building, which is now office space for a variety of federal government entities.  I need to see if I can persuade them to let me in for a few minutes one day to try to duplicate this photo.
