 There may be greater or 
 less prosperity but prog- 
 ress all the time. This is 
 a marked feature in its 
 history. Even in pe- 
 riods of financial distress 
 and paralysis of trade, it 
 has been a matter of com- 
 ment that Atlanta grows 
 and advances. No year 
 passes without some 
 great metropolitan 
 achievement. Continual 
 progress is the leading 
 incentive to investment 
 of capital and immigra- 
 tion. Increasing popula- 
 tion and prosperity are 
 therefore certain. 
 
THE WIDE 
 AWAKENESS 
 
 And energy so charac- 
 teristic of Atlanta are 
 partially due to the ele- 
 ment of its citizenship 
 contributed from the 
 best and most enterpris- 
 ing of other sections, 
 who are speedily imbued 
 with the Atlanta spirit.

 There is no mystery about tlie growth of Atlanta. Its story ean be toUl 
 in five words: location, railways, commerce, manufactures, pluck. It was 
 the outcome of the necessities of a situation. The West and the Atlantic 
 seaboard had to be brought into communication. Roads must be built 
 and location selected as the entrepot for the roads coming from either di- 
 rection. No mistake was made as results have proved. Atlanta is the 
 very spot which meets all the requirements. The road which the State it- 
 self constructed in furtherance of the plan, the Western and Atlantic from 
 Chattanooga to Atlanta 138 miles, is still the property of the State and one 
 of the most valuable railways in existence, paying an annual rental of 
 almost a half million dollars. Those who would come from the North 
 an<l Northwest to balmy Florida find that the direct great railway 
 lines go through Atlanta, as the people of the East also find the most direct 
 line to New Orleans and Texas passes through Atlanta. 
 
Continuous (BrowHb. 
 
 Atlanta not only grows, but grows constantly and largely. Nor is this 
 steady growth corifined to one line of progress, but is manifest on all lines. 
 Atlanta is a manufacturing as well as a mercantile city, and trade and 
 manfactures increase at the same pace with population. There has l)een no 
 halting. In this is exhii)itc<l the wisdom dis])laycd in the location of the citv, 
 and in it we also have strong evidence of Atlanta's superior attractions and 
 advantages, both for residence and business. There can be but one ex- 
 planation of this fact — thar it really possesses the natural and acquired 
 advantages of a great citw such as complete facilities of transportation, am- 
 ])lc capital, a rich surrounding country, a healthful and enjoyable climate, 
 and a people of character and sturdv enterprise in the best location. 
 These have made good its claims to pre-enunence as an all-round city and 
 constitute the unfailing elements of pros])erous growth. There are few 
 cities that comh.ine to such an extent the excellencies of home-life and busi- 
 ness life and hence the reason wh\' in Atlanta are to be found so many of 
 the best people from other sections. In this we also find a further ex- 
 planation of that cosmopolitan spirit which is so attractive and for which 
 Atlanta is so distinguished. While we do not need to use a drag-net to 
 draw in capital and population, we still desire to induce the immigration 
 of good people who will help us in accelerating the progress and prosperity 
 of our magnificent city. We want all the world to know it — that no bet- 
 ter place can be found than x\tlanta in which to live, to conduct business, 
 or to trade.

 Besides the prominence given it by its wide business ramificaton and 
 the personal relations and movements of a big population, it also has 
 unique characteristics and a progressiveness which give it an individualitv, 
 the exponent of which is what is known as "the Atlanta Spirit." This 
 individuality is a composite of ambition, readiness, liberalitv, cosmopoli- 
 tanism, and united efifort in all matters for the public weal. It has come 
 to be an accepted fact that nothing can be done in this country, however 
 big, that Atlanta is not ready and able to duplicate if occasion calls for it. 
 Its liberality extends to all movements of a national character, charitable 
 or patriotic, and is exhibited in the reception of new citizens who are 
 so quickly amalgamated as to become equally enthusiastic with those born 
 on the spot. This generous readiness of Atlanta upon all occasions and 
 responsiveness to the general progress and weal of the whole country 
 bring the city into constant notice. It is a matter of common observation 
 that few large national events occur, with which Atlanta is not in some 
 way connected. 
 
He a place of lRc6it)cncc, 
 
 It takes rank with the best. The cHmate is admirable, neither too cold 
 in winter or too warm in summer. When in the hottest season people are 
 suffering- great discomfort in all sections of the country and in many of the 
 big cities are dying from the heat — in Atlanta they are not suffering at all 
 as the oificial records made by the United States Government last year 
 succinctly prove. The pleasant temperature is clue largely to the location 
 at an altitude of over a thousand feet above the level of the sea, on a 
 high ridge midway between the ocean and the mountains of the Piedmont 
 range. Refreshing and invigorating breezes almost constantly prevail. 
 It is also a remarkable fact that while in almost all parts of the country 
 there has come to be a settled alarm in certain seasons as to blizzards, tem- 
 pest, tornado or cyclone, Atlanta has none of them. There is rarely ever a 
 wind strong enough to throw down an awning. If a vacation from busi- 
 ness is desired a few hours ride takes one to the mountains or to the sea- 
 shore. 
 
 In addition to these features the city has all the great facilities of a great 
 city to make life enjoyable and prosperous. It has a municipal government 
 managed in such a way as to secure the highest public improvements and 
 conveniences without imposing upon the citizens a burdensome taxation. 
 The county government is also well administered under a l^oard of county 
 commissioners. All these things go to make up the requirements of an 
 ideal citizenship. 
 
 The educational facilities are of the very highest order. There is no 
 better public school system in the United States, embracing as it does high 
 schools for girls and boys which furnish practically a college education. 
 Besides there are female seminaries in the city. We have also the great 
 Georgia School of Technology which is a branch of the State University 
 and has already made a national name, attracting praise and valued contri- 
 butions from every section of the coimtry and providing the education 
 which is now specially needed in the South to advance its manufacturing 
 development. Many of its gradaates already fill important positions as 
 managers and superintendents of manufacturing establishments and the 
 school is recognized as one of the greatest agencies for the industrial de- 
 velopment now proceeding in this section. 
 
 Besides our local institutions there are in the vicinity of Atlanta splendid 
 'Colleges, both male and female, the State University itself being within 
 two hours ride. These attractions and advantages with many more which 
 will readily suggest themselves, go to make up the requirements of an 
 ideal citizenship. The city has become one of great culture, and nowhere 
 can be found more of the refinements and higher enjoyments of living. 
 Everywhere is the evidence of culture and refinement showing itself in 
 homes of the most exquisite loveliness and most artistic surroundings. We 
 have residence streets that challenge comparison with the handsomest, and 
 most roted in the great cities.

 But it is to Atlanta's business side that we purpose to call more direct 
 attention as offering large opportunities. For this Atlanta is attract- 
 ing wide spread attention and there is a wide desire for information con- 
 cerning it. To furnish this is the object of this booklet, a brief compilation 
 of facts without unnecessary elaboration or detail and profuseness of illus- 
 tration. There is a vast deal of matter which might be given interesting 
 enough, but not essential to the purpose in view. A sufficient showing 
 will be made to evidence the unequaled development of Atlanta as an 
 all round city, its rapid strides in population and its wonderful progress 
 in commerce manufacturing and its possession of natural and acc^uired 
 advantages necessarv to the building of a great city and insuring its con- 
 tinuous growth. These are so patent and unquestionable that we 
 d,o not hesitate to invite capital and character to come without in- 
 vestigation. If however, any one should desire further details and facts 
 they will be gladly supplied in comprehensive as well as specific form on 
 application to the secretary of the Chamber of Commerce or the mayor 
 of the city or in particular lines by persons connected therewith and men- 
 tioned in the latter part of this publication. We shall issue editions from 
 time to time with additional information to keep the public well posted 
 of our progress to date. 
 
Iprospcroue ConMtione. 
 
 According to a familiar story, an American tourist in London on men- 
 tioning New York as his residence was greeted with the inquiry : "I have 
 heard of it — how near is it to Atlanta." This is not altogether a jocular 
 product of the imagination. But is an outcome or suggestion from exist- 
 ing conditions. Atlanta as the leading city of the South is spoken of very 
 frequently — for the South just now is attracting the attention and riveting 
 the interest not only of the people of this country hut of foreign countries. 
 
 The development of the South justly excites wonder. When we think 
 of its five hundred million dollars cotton crop and its wide range of agri- 
 cultural products, the tremendous increase of cotton mills and other manu- 
 facturing establishments, its inexhaustible supplies of coal and iron, that 
 three fourths of all the cotton in the world is produced in the Southern 
 States, that it is superior to the cotton of any other country, that on ac- 
 count of the less cost of manufacture in the South, the development in 
 this line is only less than marvelous, and that in consequence some of the 
 oldest and most successful mills in the United States have moved their 
 plants to the vicinity of the cotton fields and the perfect facilities and con- 
 ditions there prevailing; and consider the other vast resources as appear 
 in statement elsewhere given, we are not idealizing or theorizing, when 
 we say that the South is accorded precedence over any other section of 
 this country for business opportunities and the building of fortunes. Nor 
 was Mayor Hewitt of New York, a wise and great man, theorizing when 
 years ago he uttered these powerful words of fact and prophecy : 
 
 "The South is endowed by nature with greater advantages than any 
 similar area in the zvorld. It contains all the raw materials for innumera- 
 ble industries, in great profusion. Its coal and iron are not only unlimited 
 in quantity, but so placed in contiguity as to make their development both 
 easy and profitable. 
 
 A MONOPOLY OF THE WORLd's GREATEST AGRICULTURAL TRODUCT. 
 
 The South has a practical monopoly of cotton, v.diich now secures for 
 her exchanges with the rest of the world to the extent of three hundred 
 and fifty millions of dollars annually. There is no country in the world 
 zvhose industrial prosperity is planted upon a foundation so stable as this. 
 
 NO LIMIT TO DEVELOPMENT. 
 
 I see no limit to the development of these great natural resources. I 
 do not believe anything can permanently arrest the progress of the South 
 in the development of her vast resources, and in the promotion of all the 
 arts of civilization. 
 
GEORGIA LEADS. 
 
 As to Georgia, she well deserves the title of the empire State of the 
 South. * * * As to its vast mineral and other natural resources, I 
 was profoundly impressed with their extent and value. 
 
 A HUNDRED MILES OF RAILROAD OVER MARBLE BEDS. 
 
 The Marietta and North Georgia road has nearly one hundred miles of 
 track laid practically on marble beds of inexhaustible extent. This mar- 
 ble is of very great variety and of unquestionable value. I visited five 
 quarries, and was alike surprised and delighted. They are producing 
 marble of infinite variety and of the most beautiful colors, which wiL' 
 speedily find a market in every part of the United States. Besides marble, 
 there are veins of iron ore to be found on the surface of every mile of the 
 road." 
 
 Now Georgia with its two million population is confessedly the Empire 
 State of this Empire South in area, mineral and agricultural products and 
 general progress. 
 
 Atlanta is the capital of Georgia and the business center of all this 
 mighty South region. By the very logic of the situation it is the commer- 
 cial metropolis and must continue to expand as the South expands. It 
 cannot possibly be otherwise. This fact operates to draw capital and 
 trade, for certainty is their polar star and magnet. "The South," says U. 
 S. Senator Depew, of New York "is the Bonanza of the future." Atlanta 
 is the vantage ground for working it. And if, according to Mavor Hewitt, 
 there is "no limit to this development," is there any to the growth and 
 expansion of Atlanta? 
 
Zbc Soutb'0 noctropolie. 
 
 It is unnecessary tc go into an extensive argument to prove that At- 
 lanta will become the metropolis of the South — for it is that already and 
 is recognized as such by the people of the country in their official, private 
 and business capacity. The National Government has made it an army 
 post and has built here the Federal prison for the South. Once it was 
 necessary to make an especial effort to build and attract railroads and to 
 induce capital and business to locate in Atlanta — but now they seek At- 
 lanta of their own accord, recognizing it as the "point of resistance" for the 
 conduct and enlargement of their business throughout this section. 
 Leading corporations and busmess concerns of the United States and not 
 a few of foreign countries have established in Atlanta their headquarters 
 for the South. Perhaps nothing has evinced the metropolitan character 
 of Atlanta more strikingly than the great office buildings which have 
 produced such amazement throughout the country, a leading New York 
 daily recently remarking that there was nothing like it outside of New 
 York and Chicago. These great structures are simply the outcome of the 
 necessity of providing suitable accommodation for the concerns flocking to 
 Atlanta to make it their Southern base of operations. They recognize its 
 character as the metropolis. Atlanta never does things by halves. When 
 she saw the necessity of the modern office building it was built and one 
 after another was erected until we have a dozen or more, ecjual to the 
 best in any part of the country, Atlanta far surpassing any other city of 
 the South, both in their number, capacity and superiority of construction. 
 
H irew jexample0. 
 
 Forcible illustrations of the growing development of the South's re- 
 sources and of Atlanta's precedence for management are constantly occur- 
 ring. 
 
 Recently the Southern States Portland Cement Company commenced 
 operations for the erection of a manufacturing plant near Rockmart, 
 Georgia. They own three hundred acres of land on which a plant will be 
 erected. Probably several millions of dollars will be invested. The nec- 
 essary ingredients — limestone and slate — are found side by side in great 
 abundance, and necessary fuel is in close proximity. The material is 
 said to be pure and the best ever found in the United States. President 
 W. F. Cowham, also President of the National Portland Cement Com- 
 pany of Michigan says that the opportunities at Rockmart are more fav- 
 orable than any others existing. Nearly all the cement manufactured in 
 the United States at the present time is made at Jackson, Michigan, and 
 around Bethelehem. Pa. The names of the directors indicate a promi- 
 nence guaranteeing success : W. F. Cowham, Jackson, Mich., president 
 National Portland Cement Company, secretary and general manager Pen- 
 insular Portland Cement Company ; Frank Hawkins, Atlanta, president 
 Third National Bank; John W. Boardman, Jackson, Mich. ; Hugh F. Van 
 Deventer, Knoxville, Tenn., president Georgia Slate Companv ; A. F. 
 MacLaren, M. P., Toronto, Out., vice-president National Portland Ce- 
 ment Company, president of A. F. MacLaren Imperial Cheese Companv; 
 Joseph S. Irvin, Jackson, Mich., director Peninsular Portland Cement 
 Company; David Jamieson, M. P.. Durham. Ont., president Durham 
 Furniture Company, and N. S. Potter, Jackson, Mich., vice-president 
 Jackson City bank, treasurer Peninsular Portland Cement Company. 
 
 The machinery has been purchased and the capacity of the plant will 
 be 1, 600 barrels of Portland cement per day, according to plans and 
 specifications by the chief engineer of the company, Mr. W. B. Bogardus 
 and his assistant W. J. Maytham. Atlanta was selected for the head 
 offices of the company which are in the Empire building. 
 
 Another fact in the same direction is in the action of the St. Louis Car 
 Wheel Company, one of the largest concerns of its kind in the world. 
 It has purchased a site and will erect a branch foundry in Atlanta. This 
 company ships to Portugal, Sandwich Islands, China, Japan and many 
 other countries. The secretary and treasurer Air. John W. Nute is in the 
 city in charge of the work of construction. 
 
 These are but a few of manv instances that might be cited. 
 
population. 
 
 This has always steadily advanced. Every census, either official or es- 
 timated has shown an increase in the number of citizens. Including those 
 who are around the city and in contact and practically a part of it as 
 their business is, the population of the city at present cannot be much, 
 if any, less than 120,000. The average annual increase over a long period 
 indicates that the population will reach 200,000 within twenty years and 
 probably within less time. The following figures will show the advance 
 by periods : 
 
 1870 — 22,000. 
 1880 — 37.000. 
 1890 — 65.000. 
 1900 — 90.000. 
 
 These figures include only the people within the city lines. Those just 
 outside and doing business in Atlanta would easily swell the last figures to 
 about 105,000. In two years the. population has increased faster than 
 ever before. The directories estimate it at 120,000. It can not be far from 
 that number. 
 
poetotficc IRecctpts, 
 
 As population has increased so has the volume of business. This is in- 
 dicated by the increased postal receipts. The growth and prosperity of a 
 city are clearly manifested by the increasing business of the postoffice. It 
 is the pulse of the business life. As trade territory increases and the vol- 
 ume of business, the enlarged use of the mails is necessarv. In this in- 
 stance too, as in the case of the population it will be seen that the percent 
 age of increase is large. It is not less than fifteen per cent. 
 
 The following figures are ofilicial. 
 
 Receipts to March 31, 1900 — $309,959.69. 
 Receipts to March 31, 1901 — 350,274.95. 
 Receipts to March 31, 1902 — 402.332.95. 
 
 Postmaster Blodgett's report for year ending June 30, 1902, shows an 
 increasing percentage. 
 
transportation ifacilities. 
 
 The transportation facilities of Atlanta througii additional railways, 
 as well as enlarged service, of each railway, made absolutely 
 necessary by the increase of passenger and freight traffic, have been so 
 increased that they may be deemed practically perfect. We have railways 
 radiating to every section of the Union embracing eleven lines operated 
 by the Southern, Central of Georgia, N. C. & St. L., Seaboard Air 
 Line, Georgia and Atlanta & West Point. The mileage of the systems 
 thus directly entering Atlanta amounts to over 13,000 miles. Atlanta has 
 become a great railway center — in fact the railway center of the South. 
 For many of the great railway systems of the country which reach the city 
 only by connection have established offices here. One of these, the North- 
 western of Chicago has an office in the Equitable building that was fitted 
 up at an expense of several thousand dollar=. 
 
 Xo city in America is more thoroughly and completely provided with 
 railway facilities. But so important is this city as the railway center of 
 the South that we constantly hear of plans for new railways making At- 
 lanta the terminus or of existing systems seeking such a terminus. 
 
 The mileage is as follows: Southern, 6.935; Seaboard, 2,611 ; Central 
 of Georgia, 1,845 ! ^- C. and St. L., 1,189; Georgia, 322; A. & W. P. and 
 Western of Ala., 225. Total 13,127 miles. 
 
Bank Clearings 
 
 In these we have another striking evidence of the increased vokime of 
 business. They have grown until they reached the great sum of 
 $111,755,849.98 in 1901. They show a steady advance from year to year 
 and preserve the average percentage of increase. In 1900 the bank clear- 
 ings amounted to $96,375,257.22. The gain was therefore over 15 per 
 ceni. 
 
 ^ 
 
 Banl? 2)epo0it9. 
 
 These have been likewise steadily climbing up. In 1895 the bank de- 
 posits amounted to six millions ($6,000,000), in May, 1902, running about 
 twelve millions ($12,000,000), thus doubling in seven years. 
 
H9 a noart^ct. 
 
 The fact that Atlanta is sought and has been made the Southern head- 
 quarters by the leading concerns in the United States doing business in 
 this section, because of its greater facilities and advantages, for conduct- 
 ing business and selling goods, carries with it the other fact by necessity 
 that it is the best and cheapest market to buy in. Here are great whole- 
 sale nnd jobbing houses in every line carrying immense stocks, and 
 manufacturing establishments covering almost the entire field of manu- 
 factured products of utility, as well as many of art, annual sales approxi- 
 mating one hundred millions of dollars. The manager of one of the 
 great buildings said recently that there is not a city in this country in 
 which a man can buy better than he can in Atlanta. "Whatever I need in 
 the management of this immense building I can go out into the city of 
 x\tlanta and get, and I can see it and not have it ordered for me from 
 a catalogue." In every department of trade Atlanta is a great market. 
 There is hardly an exception. Take for instance the horse and mule 
 trade. The figures show that the sales are the third largest of any in the 
 United States. People from a wide section of country come to Atlanta to 
 supply themselves with stock and we have great stables that can accom- 
 modate thousands at a time and there are regular auction sales during 
 the season. 
 
flDanufacturce 
 
 In nothing has Atlanta made greater advance than in the Hne of manu- 
 factures. It has pushed itself into the front rank of manufacturing 
 cities. There is hardly anything of utility that is not manufactured in 
 Atlanta, embracing almost all the products of trade. In some lines the 
 progress has been remarkable. Furniture factories use at least half a mil- 
 lion dollars worth of raw material, and work over a thousand emplovees. 
 The growth of manufacturers in Atlanta is the result of a combination of 
 transportation facilities, the immediate vicinity of raw material, coal 
 supply in abundance, and other advantages possessed in common at the 
 South, such as cheaper cost of living, more advantageous climate for 
 work, etc. Atlanta manufacturers make shipments to numerous foreign 
 countries. 
 
 The United States Census Bulletin gives the following figures for 1900: 
 Number of establishments, 395; numlier of wage earners, 10.000; capital 
 employed, $16,000,000. 
 
 We append a list of manufacturers, which is only partial, but sufiicient 
 to indicate the scope of manufactured products.

 Atlanta has given and continues to give the country great surprises. It 
 has not hesitated at a World's Fair, pronounced by many unsurpassed by 
 any held ni America. It readily undertakes anything of value done by our 
 greatest cities. But perhaps nothing so astonished the people of the coun- 
 try and focused national attention as the bold feat of the city in the con- 
 struction of modern office buildings. The country had scarcely quit talk- 
 uig about the sky-scrapers of Chicago and Xew York before Atlanta em- 
 barked in the business. If those cities could build them, so could Atlanta. 
 Our Equitable led oft", a lialf million dollar structure, which freely elicited 
 predictions that it would be the last. But it was no experiment. Its 
 builders knew what they were about. The three hundred offices in that 
 magnificent edifice were not all ready before they were taken. One after 
 another great office structures foHowed in quick succession, and were like- 
 wise speedily filled — and we have one now going up called the Century 
 which towers like a veritable Atlas ambitious to support a good segment 
 of the skies. We have fourteen or fifteen specially constructed office 
 buildings. Those not at first containing all the up-to-date appointments 
 iiave been re-modeled and modernized. In these buildings are over two 
 thousand offices, in which it is safe to say fully ten thousand people do 
 business, counting only those who are actually engaged in them. In each 
 of several of these buildings passenger trips on the elevators sometimes 
 aggregate ten thousand a day. 
 
 In one, the Equitable, official figures have been published to show that its 
 mail business is greater than that of a prosperous city of forty thousand 
 people. In the offices are the managers and representatives of Southern 
 Departments for many of the largest corporations and companies in the 
 United States in all the great lines of trade, and they still continue to come. 
 This fact as well as others of an interesting character, will appear to those 
 who examine the descriptions given in subsequent pages. \\'e do not give 
 full descriptions in each case, for the buildings are all excellent in their ap- 
 pointments and substantially similar. 
 
Zhc lequitablc. 
 
 The completion of the Equitable Building was an event of great magni- 
 tude, and one of the foremost in the city's history. In size, finish, and 
 costliness, it is not exceeded by any office structure in the South, and com- 
 pares favorably with any in cities of the North and West. 
 
 Occupying i6o feet on Pryor, 185 on Edge wood avenue, and 89 on Por- 
 ter's alley, it is eight stories higli, making with the basement, nine floors, 
 and has over 300 rooms. 
 
 The exterior is exceedingly handsome, and is constructed of the most 
 durable and finest materials. The first story is of marble and granite, with 
 circular columns three feet in diameter. The remaining stories are of light 
 colored brick with terra cotta ornamentation. These brick are American 
 .made, and cost $55 per thousand or over five cents each. The faces of the 
 court are of white glazed brick, iiuported from England at a cost of $150- 
 a thousand, or fifteen eenls each. 
 
 The interior is a marvel of construction in meeting all the requirements 
 for comfort, convenience, light and ventilation. 
 
 The ground floor is divided into stories and bank apartments. 
 
 The main entrances lead into a hall twenty-one feet wide. The floor and 
 ceiling of these entrances are of beautiful mosaic marble work. From the 
 hall ascends a semi-circular marlile and iron stair-way, and four elevators. 
 Both stairway and elevators run to the top floor. The latter are of the 
 best and most modern construction as to speed, safety and power. 
 
 All stores and offices have interior entrances to this hall. 
 
 On the first floor is a rotunda covered with glass, above which is an open 
 court. 
 
 All hall and corridor floors are of Georgia marl^le. the base of Belgium 
 marble, and the wainscotong and toilet-rooms of pure white Italian marble. 
 
 There are two main entrances, one on each street, richlv decorated 1)v 
 carvings in stone. 
 
 The location is almost at the very business centre, being on the corner 
 of Edgewood avenue and Pryor streets, one block from the junction of 
 Peachtree, Marietta streets anrl Edgewood avenue, and one lilock from the 
 Kimball House. 
 
 Ascending to the second floor, or first above the street, the landing is 
 in a hall, upon which o])en numerous offices, and from this lead two hall- 
 ways into the wings, all the offices looking either out upon the street or 
 upon the court, the large majority upon the street, owing to the hai)]T|_v 
 location of the building and construction, though the width of the court 
 with one open end renders the offices opening upon it little inferior, if at 
 all, to the others. All the other stories are similarly planned.

 THE EOriTABLE. 
 
The entire building- has the modern fire-proof construction of tile and 
 steel. All through the building there is a skeleton of steel work, which 
 carries the weight of the walls and floors. The floors are constructed of 
 steel beams instead of the ordinary wooden floor joist, with arches of tile 
 between them. All the interior dividing walls are built of blocks of tile, 
 which receive the plastering without the ordinary wooden laths to hold it 
 in place. Thus each room has all its walls, ceiling and floor, constructed of 
 a material impossiljle to burn. There is no wood used in the structural 
 part of the building. The thin covering of wooden flooring on top of the 
 tile flooring, the doors and window-casings, are the only parts composed 
 of wood. 
 
 In addition to the tile floors and walls, all constructional metal supports 
 for the building are covered with fire-proofing, which protects them from 
 exposure to heat which might arise from a fire in an adjoining building or 
 from burning material stored in any of the rooms. The entire building 
 being composed of iron and steel and fire-proof tile, which is nothing less 
 than baked clay, there is absolutely nothing in the structure of a combus- 
 tible nature. 
 
 The building is lighted ])y electricity and heated by steam. 
 
 The cost approximated three quarters of a million dollars. 
 
 In its inception and completion tl.e master spirit was Mr. Joel Hurt. To 
 him is mainly due the credit of the brilliant conception and execution of 
 an enterprise, which marked an era in Atlanta's history, and one of its 
 foremost strides in metropolitan progress. 
 
 The Lowry National IJank moved from their own building to occupy 
 apartments in the Equital)le specially prepared for them. The interior 
 arrangement, the $15,000 safe, the vaidts, the furniture, and appointments 
 generally, make it one of the finest bank interiors in the whole country. 
 
 We show elsewhere that Atlanta is the great railway headquarters of the 
 South ; the Equitable is railway headquarters in Atlanta, there being thirty 
 or forty railway and su]jply companies represented in offices ranging two 
 to a dozen each. 
 
 Among these may be mentioned The Southern Railway, The Atlanta & 
 West Point and Western Railway of Alabama, The Alabama Great South- 
 ern, The Atlanta, Knoxville & Northern, Pennsylvania Lines, Seaboard 
 Air Line, Chicago and Alton, Missouri, Kansas and Texas, Missouri Paci- 
 fic, Norfolk & Western, Mobile & Ohio. Kansas City Southern, St. Louis 
 & South Western (Cotton Belt), Georgia Southern & Florida, Plant Sys- 
 tem, The Chicago & Northwestern, which has a very handsome office on 
 the street floor fitted up at an expense of several thousand dollars. Here 
 too, are Southeastern Freight Association and the Southeastern Passen- 
 ger Association, which represent nearly all the lines of the South. The 
 
great Clyde Steamship Company also has its office in this building, South- 
 ern Car Line and American Refrigerator Transit Company. We append

 This splendid structure, occupying the block boundcxl by Broad, Walton 
 and Forsyth streets and Custom House Place is one of the most desirable 
 and valuable for stores, banking, insurance, real estate, general business 
 and professional offices. It is in the business center — directly opposite the 
 U. S. Post-office and Custom House Building, and all the street railroad 
 systems center near its doors. It has a frontage of eighty-five feet on 
 Broad street, one hundred and seventv-eight feet on Walton street, eighty- 
 eight feet on h'orsvth street, and one hundred and seventy-eight on Custom 
 House Place. 
 
 The building was designed by Mr. Thos. H. Morgan, of Bruce & Mor- 
 gan, Architects, Atlanta, Georgia, in the spirit of the Italian Renaissance, 
 a style most appropriate for this climate. 
 
 The first three stories are built of Bedford limestone and grey brick, and 
 above this rises five stories of plain wall surface, which support the en- 
 riched pilasters and cornices of the two top stories. The three principal 
 entrances are of limestone beautifully designed and carved. 
 
 This building is of the most modern fire-proof, independent steel con- 
 struction. The structural steel work was designed by Mr. Corydon T. 
 Purdy. of Purdy & Henderson, Structural Steel Engineers, New York 
 City. 
 
 There are entrances from Broad, Walton and Forsyth streets, centering 
 at the elevators and forming a grand arcade through the center of the 
 building from Broad to Forsyth street. The vestibules are handsomely 
 finished, Vv^alls and ceilings in A'erde antique marble with Mosiac floors. 
 There is also an entrance for freight and employees from Custom House 
 Place. 
 
 The first story is arranged for Ijanking purposes, real estate or insurance 
 •offices and attractive stores. These front on r)road, Walton and Forsyth 
 streets, and have verv large polished plate-glass show windows, both on 
 the streets and the arcade. 
 
 From the second to the tenth story inclusive the space is divided into 
 offices. Each office is provided with a marble wash-bowl and an oak ward- 
 robe. Every room has direct outside light, polished plate-glass windows 
 from bottom to top. The finish is selected oak. and each room has every 
 •convenience of heat, light and ventilation. The space will be divided to 
 meet the requirements of tenants. 
 
 There are four high-speed elevators complete and perfect in equipment, 
 with decorative wrought-iron screens. They have every modern a])i)liance 
 for safety, and are conveniently situated in the center of the building. 
 There is one freight elevator for lifting safes, furniture, etc. 
 
The corridors on every floor are broad and well lighted. They are all 
 finished with marble tile floors, and marble wainscoating six feet high, 
 above which are large glass transoms. 
 
 The building has light on all four sides, and each room has direct out- 
 side light through large plate-glass windows. 
 
 Each room and corridor is provided with gas and electric light. The 
 building has a large modern electric light plant, and lights will lie fur- 
 nished to tenants without extra charge. 
 
 No expense has been spared to secure phnul^ing of the best and most 
 sanitary character. 
 
 The building is heated by steam according to the most approved and 
 scientific method. 
 
 The arcade or main corridor is finished in white marl)le from floor to 
 ceiling. A number of the stores have entrances and large plate glass show 
 windows upon the arcade. 
 
 There are two grand marble stairways to the second floor, and one in 
 each end of the l)uilding from the second to the tenth, entirely removed 
 from the elevators. 
 
 This building has all the modern conveniences, including janitor ser- 
 vice, U. S. mail chute, ice water on every floor, etc., etc. It is occupied by

 The location of the l)uilding- is most advantageous, fronting as it does 
 upon Peachtree street, the principal thoroughfare of the city, and being 
 just at the juncture of the residence and business sections of the city, is 
 most convenient to all classes of people. This is of especial importance to 
 physicians, whose patients may avoid the crush of trade. It is also in the 
 liotel and club center of the city thus placing it in close contact with the 
 traveling public. The cars of all lines of street railways stop directly in 
 front of the door, thus affording convenient communication with all parts 
 of the city. 
 
 The construction and arrangement of the building aft'ord a degree of 
 privacy and independerce found in anv otffce building, there being in 
 110 case more than six separate offices tributar}' to each floor. One is thus 
 ■enabled to preserve a perfect individual establishment and identity, which 
 would be lost on a floor of greater area. Each floor has separate toilet 
 conveniences and is complete within itself. 
 
 The lighting arrangement is perfect, each room being lighted by a large 
 central cluster of six to twelve lights, in addition to wall and desk brack- 
 ets. The lighting and power currents are taken from the public service, 
 as is also the steam heat, so that they are available at all hours of the 
 day or night and will not be subject to the interruptions with which a 
 private service would be liable. The motion of the cars is smooth and 
 imiform avoiding the jerk and lurch of hydraulic elevators which is so 
 annoying to ladies and persons of delicate health and temperament. Pro- 
 vision is made for an all night elevator service in order that the offices 
 may at all times be readily accessible. Attendance by uniformed servants 
 is included in the rate of rental, and the perfect neatness of apartments at 
 all times is assured. 
 
 The building is absolutely fire-proof, and every room has an outside ex- 
 posure wdiich ensures perfect light and ventilation and affords an interest- 
 ing view of the citv, while free from the noise, dust and annoyances of the 
 street. 
 
 The interior construction is such that while all standing walls are fire- 
 proof and impervious to sound, they can be readily removed to make any 
 divisions of space required in special cases. A very economical arrange- 
 ment can be made by the association of two firms in the space of three 
 rooms ; having a reception room in common and a private office on each 
 side.

 The first mark and stamp of superiority in the new office buikHngs of 
 Atlanta is the manifest efifort at perfect construction. To accomplish this 
 the plans are modeled after the best features developed in modern architec- 
 ture, and then the work is put into hands of men whose character as well as 
 successful records are guarantees of efficiency. This fact is prominently 
 shown in the Austell building, Bruce and Morgan being the architects, and 
 the contractors Miles & Bradt, who have constructed many very costlv 
 buildings in this and other States of the country, among them the half mil- 
 lion dollar white marble U. S. government building in Savannah. 
 
 Mr. W. B. Miles is best known to Georgians as the builder of our State 
 Capitol, the best American structure of its kind for the cost and one built 
 for less than the appropriation. 
 
 The location on Forsyth street, at the bridge, gives a magnificent base- 
 ment along the railroad tracks. The second floor, on Forsyth street, above 
 the viaduct, is composed mainly of store rooms. In the nine floors there 
 are over two hundred offices, every one being well ventilated and lighted, 
 and the construction and appointments throughout are upon the most mod- 
 ern and best perfected plans.

The Gould Building is on Decatur street, across from the Kimball, m the 
 very heart of the city/ It was erected in 1887, specially for office P^rposes. 
 Since Mr. Gould's death, it has been several times unproved by Mr- ^'■ 
 C Chapman, son-in-law of Mr. Gould, and the present proprietor. He has 
 spared no expense to make it complete and up-to-date. It has about sev- 
 entv-f^ve rooms besides bank apartments, and a first-class Tmkish bath m 
 the' basement. Improvements made in the Fourth National bank offices, 
 entitle them to rank among the finest and handsomest m the country, the 
 marble finishing being all of Georgia, and all the grill work being hand- 
 hammered. This building also enjoys the distinction of fire proof vaults 
 on every floor.

 In the following- pages will be found information of many leading con- 
 cerns located in Atlanta. Among them are some who sell goods and ship 
 even into foreign countries and across the ocean — their facilities are un- 
 surpassed. We are sure, therefore, that no one can buy to better advan- 
 tage than of these concerns and business men. and advise that incjuiry be 
 made of them for catalogues, price lists, etc. 
 
Biicf^mal^ino flDacbineri?. 
 
 We have sliown in this booklet that Atlanta is the recognized metropolis 
 of the South where great concerns of the country have established their 
 headquarters for the most convenient and efficient dealing with their cus- 
 tomers throughout this section. One among the many evidences of this 
 fact is the organization of new companies with this view. Among these 
 is the Atlanta Brick Machinery Company organized to supply the de- 
 mand for improved up-to-date brick plants and brick making appliances. 
 It is a Georgia Incorporated firm w-ith a paid in capital of twenty-five 
 thousand dollars. The president and general manager, Mr. Frank H. 
 Reid, is a successful Ijrick maker and has also large acquaintance with the 
 best brick making machinery. L. M. Reid is secretary and treasurer. 
 J. K. Montgomery and George Gorton are connected with the firm as di- 
 rectors. 
 
 They are exclusive agents in this section for the very best brick mak- 
 ing appliances and machinery, and can doubtless be of great service and 
 profit to the brick makers of this section, saving them monev in various 
 ways unnecessary to state, as they are quite manifest. They are manu- 
 facturers and manufacturers' agents for a full and complete line of brick 
 and tile machiner\', and, (juoting further from their card, they are special 
 agents in twelve Southern states for Wallace Manufacturing Company of 
 B'rankfort, Ind., for their complete Wonder Stiff Mud Wire Cut Brick 
 iVIachinery, built in four sizes, making twenty thousand, forty thousand, 
 sixty thousand and one hundred thousand brick per day. 
 
 They are also agents for the following : The Berg Dry Presses, Frost 
 Dry Pans, Richardson Steam Power and Hand Repressers. 
 
 The "'Grand Automatic" Arnold-Creager Soft Mud (sand finish) Brick 
 Machinery, Pub Mills, Brick Barrows, Trucks and Supplies. Potts 
 "World Renowned" Disintegrators. 
 
 George S. Cox's Special Drawn Cutting Wires. Brick Driers, Drier 
 Cars and Drier Equipments. 
 
 The Houston, Stanwood and Gambles Engines, Boilers, Pumps and 
 Heaters. 
 
 We arc satisfied that those who contemplate plants could not do better 
 than to entrust the equipment of them to this Company, who will also 
 furnish clay ex])erts when desired to examine deposits or will execute any 
 service requisite to insure the success of their patrons. Those who can- 
 not find it convenient to make a trip to Atlanta can accomplish as much 
 by a letter asking for catalogue, prices and information. 
 
 The office of the companv is located at 403 Prudential Building, Atlanta, 
 Ga.

The South 
 
 Its Wonderful I^esourccs and Climate. 
 
 United States Senator Chauncey M. 
 Depew of New York, in an address to 
 the Alumni Association of Yale Uni- 
 versity, said : "The net result of my 
 visit to the South, is just this, that the 
 South is the Bonanza of the future. 
 We have developed all the great and 
 sudden opportunities for wealth — or 
 most of them— in the Northwestern 
 States and on the Pacific Slope, but 
 here is a vast country with the best cli- 
 mate in the world, with conditions of 
 health which are absolutely Jinparalelled 
 with vast forests untouched, with 
 enormous veins of coal and iron which 
 have yet not known anything beyond 
 their original conditions, with soil that 
 under proper cultivation, for little capi- 
 tal, can support a tremendous popula- 
 tion, with conditions in the atmosphere 
 for comfortable living winter and sum- 
 mer, which exist nowhere else in thu 
 country.^'' 
 
 To this wonderful Eldorado Atlanta 
 is the principal gateway.
