Project Description
FROM AIA GEORGIA:
The Grey is the rehabilitation of the historic greyhound
Bus Depot into a modern restaurant. The original structure was constructed between 1937-1939
and early on the goal was to retain and preserve the historic character of the greyhound bus
station. The distinctive features, finishes and construction techniques were preserved. the
rehabilitation included replication of the historic blue vitrolux and ivory vitrolite. These materials
are not produced today and were substituted with a glazed cladding as recommended by the
National Park Service.
