| Sprong Atlanta, GA |
 |
| Cafe 101 Doraville, GA |
 |
 |
 |
|
Sprong is a children's shoe store.
Cafe 101 is a pizzeria. I believe before this, the building was used by a sub shop. [first photo, ca. 1987, thanks Eavenson Art] These two buildings must have been part of a mid-century chain. Does anyone know what they were used for originally? I believe they may have been part of a bank branch chain which included the similar-looking Trust Company Bank in Atlanta. They also look somewhat like the Phoenix Financial Center rotundas in Phoenix, AZ. If there are other buildings like this, I'd sure like to know about them. |
