The top six floors of the building were demolished in 1978.
The three remaining floors today serve as the office for the Atlanta Historical Society's Downtown office.
This building was described as being one of the narrowest "high-rise" buildings in the United States. This may have factored in the decision to raze the top six floors in the preservation effort.
Fire insurance maps indicate this was 120 feet to the main roof excluding the penthouse.
