- Has 2 executive offices at the top. The two offices are glass rooms from the ceilings to the walls. You can see them on each side of the building right at the top.
- The building looks completey thin when looked at from different angles. You can see what I mean in the last few pictures.

Great tower with some good height...modern Atlanta history :)

You can also see the new GP sign at the top. They added it up there becasue many people did not even know who the buiding belonged to or who Georgia Pacific was!

If you have ever been in a public restroom you know who they are LOL

omg how ugly is this far to blocky and lifeless!
