The Atlantic is a 46-storey mixed-use residential skyscraper at the southeastern corner of 17th Street NW and State Street NW in Atlanta's Atlantic Station neighbourhood. It rises 577 ft (176 m), making it the thirteenth-tallest building in Atlanta, and holds 401 residential suites of up to 3,172 sq ft (295 m2). Its 1930s Art Deco design includes an ornamental roof lined with spikes and turrets made by local metals fabricator Henry Incorporated, and it stands atop an eight-level car park with 1,264 spaces.

The tower was topped out in April 2009, leaving only interior work before it opened later that year. It was designed by Smallwood Reynolds Stewart Stewart & Associates and built at a cost of $136.6 million as one of the core structures of the Atlantic Station brownfield redevelopment.
