About 200 Peachtree: breathing new lifeOriginally the Davison-Paxon department store and then Macy’s, 200 Peachtree breathes new life into a historic space. Step off Peachtree Street into the Grand Atrium with marble floors, Greek columns and stained glass windows. This example of building reuse not only saves resources, it preserves the character of the neighborhood and lends a lovely setting to learn about protecting our environment.
Healthy communities start with a healthy environment - clean air, clean water and abundant green space. In our quest to help people THRIVE, Kaiser Permanente strongly supports EarthShare of Georgia in the mission of making these conditions a reality for communities throughout our state. – Kerry W.
