Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta

The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta features a massive, fortress-like facade of polished Georgia granite and limestone that looms over Peachtree Street. This building serves as the headquarters for the Sixth District of the Federal Reserve System. When it opened in two thousand one, architects designed the structure to project stability and security for the nation's financial heart in the South. During the move, officials transported billions of dollars in cash through the streets of Atlanta under heavy guard before dawn.
