In a story which I've sadly overlooked, the famous old
Castle on 15th Street is being converted into a boutique hotel. The
building, completed in 1910, had fallen into
disrepair by the late 20th century, and was referred to by Mayor Andrew Young as a "
hunk of junk" in 1986. Today, it is one of the oldest residential buildings of its size in Midtown, and is certainly a unique reminder of a different era in Atlanta's history; soon, it will once again be inhabited.
