Reader Jeff Clemmons wrote in with the sad news that the Emory Crawford Long Hospital has plans to demolish this fine 1930 modern classic style building located at the northeast corner of West Peachtree and Linden Streets.

In addition, he's set up an online petition to try to get hospital officials to change their minds and consider some kind of adaptive reuse for this 78-year-old building, which is officially known as the Industrial Life & Health Insurance Company Building.  Here's hoping it works.   He's also put together a detailed history of the building that can be read over at the linked petition page.

On the right are several old photos of the building and some new ones as well.  The new shots were all provided by Jeff.
