Olympia Building, Art Deco building at Five Points in Downtown Atlanta, United States.

The Olympia Building stands as a two-story structure with terra cotta and marble facade at the intersection of Peachtree Street in downtown Atlanta.

Architects Ivey and Crook designed this building in 1935, replacing the location of Atlanta's first post office and general store from the 1840s.

The building received its name from Frank Hawkins' investments in Olympia Beach, Florida, marking a transition from revival to international architectural style.

The structure currently houses a Walgreens retail store and features a large Coca-Cola sign on its roof, generating monthly rental income.

The State of Georgia acquired the building through a $3.6 million gift from the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation before the 1996 Summer Olympics.

Location: Georgia

Inception: 1936
