PHOENIX FLIES 2026 | Midtown's Historic Adaptive Re-Use Successes

Looking deeper in Midtown's gleaming modern skyline lies a different kind of beauty - buildings that preserved. This Midtown Alliance guided walk explores three masterpieces of adaptive reuse that have been rescued, restored, and reimagined for a new era. In just half a mile walk, you'll uncover the stories behind: Academy of Medicine (1941), The Biltmore (1924) and the Crum & Foster Building (1927). All three buildings are now part of Georgia Tech's portfolio in Midtown. Discover the creative vision, meticulous restoration efforts, and ambitious plans that breathe contemporary life into these historic architectural gems.
Parking is readily available on-street or in nearby decks
