1960 - This photo looks to the NE along Houston Street toward Houston's intersection with Pryor Street.  In recent decades, Houston Street was renamed John Wesley Dobbs Avenue and this portion of Pryor Street has been rechristened as Park Place.  The Avon Hotel visible on the right was still standing in the late 1970s, but following its demolition the spot has served as a parking lot.  Construction is now underway to build Georgia State University's new law school there.  Plans call for it to open in the fall of 2015.  Photo courtesy of Georgia State University, file #N08-006_c.   Google map
