    Take the guided tour of the first floor, if possible. The second floor also has great photos and films. There is a documentary of the film's making that loops for 2 hours. Free parking avail.

    This is called house but technically an apartment building and a restored one. Nevertheless visiting here is a great way to pay a respect to one of the most well known novels in the world!

    A must see when downtown for its historical value to the city both economically & socially. Reminds Atlanta how far we've come & how much further we have to go. Take a tour & enjoy the energy.

    This very small apartment is not even historically restored. Unless you have plenty of time in Atlanta, you should visit more interesting attractions.
