Ten Peachtree Place, Postmodern office building in Midtown Atlanta, United States
Ten Peachtree Place is a postmodern office building with a distinctive 30-foot-high curved entryway framed in red granite and dark reflective windows. The structure rises prominently along Peachtree Street with a design that blends curved and angular forms across its exterior.
The building was completed in 1989 and initially served as the Coca-Cola Computer Center as part of the Gateway Atlanta development. It marked an important moment in the city's shift toward postmodern architectural expression during the late 1980s boom.
Michael Graves incorporated geometric patterns and structural elements that exemplified the architectural transition from modernism to postmodernism in the late 1980s.
The building sits directly on Peachtree Street and is easy to spot thanks to its curved archway entrance. The surrounding area is pedestrian-friendly with nearby parking and transit access typical of downtown office districts.
The building underwent a major interior renovation in 2002 that completely modernized its office spaces and facilities. Southern Company Gas later became the primary occupant and established its headquarters here, making it a significant corporate hub.
