Peachtree Street, 1955

Peachtree Street, as it appeared in 1955. In this photo, we're looking northeast toward the First United Methodist Church and the Hotel Frances, also known as the Frances Hotel. The church still stands, but the 1898 hotel is long gone and a SunTrust tower can now be found there. Photo courtesy of the Georgia State University Library Archives, file #LBGPNS13-142d. Google map
