Crum & Forster Building
The Crum & Forster Building is a 1928 three-story building with a Renaissance façade with columns and arches located at 771 Spring Street at Tech Square in Midtown Atlanta.
==History==
The building was designed in 1926 by a team of New York and Atlanta architects — Ed Ivey and Lewis Crook, both Georgia Tech graduates who helped establish the Architecture program at Georgia Tech in 1908.., and opened in 1928 as a regional office for a national insurance firm.〔(''Fight to save historic Crum & Forster continues; Georgia Tech has big plans for block", ''Saporta Report'', November 14, 2011 )〕
In 2007, the Georgia Tech Foundation purchased the building, and sought permits to demolish the building as part of a plan to expand Technology Square.〔 Preservationists fought the demolition and in August 2009, the Atlanta City Council and Mayor Shirley Franklin granted the building protective status as a historic landmark. The Georgia Tech Foundation appealed this decision. They instead purchased an adjoining property where a SunTrust Banks branch was previously located. In September 2013, the Georgia Tech Foundation demolished two-thirds of the Crum & Forster Building, leaving only part of its facade, to clear space for a High Performance Computing Center mid-rise.
