  • High Museum of Art
    About the High Museum of Art The High Museum of Art is the leading art museum in the Southeastern United States. Located in Atlanta’s Midtown arts and business district, the High has more than 14,000 works of art in its permanent collection. The Museum has an extensive anthology of 19th- and 20th-century American and decorative art; significant holdings of European paintings; a growing collection of African American art; and burgeoning collections of modern and contemporary art, folk art, photography, and African art. The High is also dedicated to supporting and collecting works by Southern artists, and in 1996 the Museum launched its “Picturing the South” program to commission emerging and established photographers to create new work inspired by the Southern landscape. Established in 1905 as the Atlanta Art Association, the Museum’s first permanent home came in 1926, with the donation by Mrs. Joseph M. High of her family’s residence on Peachtree Street. In 1955, the Museum moved to a new brick structure adjacent to the old High house. After 122 Georgia art patrons died in a plane crash on a Museum-sponsored European tour in 1962, the Atlanta Arts Alliance was founded in their memory, and the Atlanta Memorial Arts Center opened in 1968—constructed around the existing Museum. In 1979, Coca-Cola magnate Robert W. Woodruff offered a $7.5 million challenge grant to build a new facility; Museum officials matched and exceeded the grant, generating a total of $20 million. The High Museum of Art’s building designed by noted architect Richard Meier opened to worldwide acclaim in 1983, and it has received many design awards, including a 1991 citation from the American Institute of Architects as one of the “ten best works of American architecture of the 1980s.” Meier’s 135,000-square-foot facility, now known as the Stent Family Wing, tripled the Museum’s space, enabling the institution to mount more comprehensive displays of its collections.

But there it was this spring on a billboard towering over Atlanta’s I-75/85 Downtown Connector, in giant mint-colored letters sharing space with Iblown-up vintage buttons representing Hank Aaron, the Fox Theatre, and other Atlanta icons: “Do It for the Culture.” As part of a bold rebranding, the illuminated bill- Atlanta community of Buckhead in late 2015. Its main board lifted the line from a hit song by Atlanta rappers point of entry, the Atlanta History Museum, now features Migos. History museums aren’t usually in the habit of a large curved expanse of structural glass and limestone referencing rap songs, but the Atlanta History Center is rising from a base of Georgia granite. The façade opens going through an unprecedented period of reinvention, into an atrium with 30-foot-high ceilings that replaced a clearing cobwebs from its image and projecting the slightly dim and cramped train station-styled lobby.

    piedmont area transportation study final report Several portions of the corridor, such as near the northern and southern activity centers, do have more consistent and attractive streetscape environments. However, other portions existing of the corridor have not received improvements during recent years. This creates a disconnected corridor and provides unattractive and difficult conditions for individuals wishing to walk between the areas with nicer aesthetics and well-kept conditions streetscapes. This discontinuity between areas is even more noticeable to motorists who drive along the corridor.
