Historic office tower to fall in favor of more apartments

At that time, it was known for its C&S bank, which reportedly had a helicopter land on the roof to transfer cash."

A couple of random "firsts" does not inherently deem a structure as 'historic.' The first building with cubicles! The first office building in Atlanta that had central AC! I stand by my statement that the article did not deem the building historic, but you did to continue to push your OTP agenda and troll the ITP crowd. And based on your responses, I was correct. Do you ever post stuff like this on the Skyscraper forums? Why don't you troll over there?

A reasoned counterpoint does not a troll make. You, on the other hand...

I'm still raw about this:

Its a shame about the Ansley Park home, that was a beautiful home. I love that modern style.

At this point arjay is hardly the troll here, sporto.

If one of the best posters here gets under your very thin skin so much, put him on ignore.
