At Emory Hospital this would be good enough.
But it's more important that that.
The Academy of Medicine has 5 five doors, here are 4. Terrace:
The parking lot door. This is quite a composition. What is inside?
The side door.
The front door:
The door at Emory's Harris Hall is grand and comfortable.
GRAND.
The fruity goodness of the Phelan Apartments.
One of the "other" doors to The Villa with my favorite asymmetrical curvy stairs.
Speaking of curves, this mansion's door curves too.
They weren't all so grand and they aren't all still here. The Dwoskin Shops, R.I.P..
Even the least ones were handsome in decay.
Magnificent examples, all. Hopefully this will serve as inspiration for those who do not realize the importance of an appropriate door.
ReplyDeleteI applied to Emory Univ, but ended up not going. Everything is so amazing. Thanks for posting these images for us.

Very good post, Terry. I've been inside the Academy of Medicine a few times and it is beautiful, though sadly run down. Directly opposite the Academy there used to be a relatively modern and completely ordinary building but which, surprisingly, had the most beautiful Doric columns at the front door. Another tear down, I'm afraid, and replaced by banality - the usual in this city.
ReplyDeleteThanks for these images. Doors and Shutze - what a great combination!
ReplyDeleteYes Blue. Here is the little apartment across 7th Street.
ReplyDeleteSorry, Terry, I meant directly opposite the front of the Academy on West Peachtree. The building was demolished a few years ago.
ReplyDeleteI lived at 942 West Peachtree for my last year at Tech. BC - Before Cheetah. I should remember it.
ReplyDeleteGreat how you used the photos to tell a story. Have always loved doors and am especially fond of gates.
