  One Atlantic Center - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was completed in 1987 and remained the tallest building in Atlanta until 1992, when it was surpassed by the Bank of America Plaza, which was also built in Midtown.
The top of the tower is based on the bell tower at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech), whereas the tower's design is very similar to (and most likely designed after) the Tribune Tower in Chicago.
It was joined in 2000 by a much shorter building with a very similar postmodern design that was constructed across the street as the second phase of the Atlantic Center development.
