| 1051 | Paul Muldawer FAIA | A great institution leads by example. The Georgia Tech Foundation has the opportunity to set an example for the city and its student body in preserving a valuable historic asset. We cannot buy history. |

| 1053 | Glenn Murer | Please do not allow this building to be demolished. |

| 1055 | Terry L Belknap | I would like to see the Foundation follow the school's pursuits in historic preservation, architecture and sustainable design by demonstrating solutions that can showcase this landmark as the gem that it is.
I have not seen the final solution. However, it does not make any sense to remove a landmark structure to make way for a wider sidewalk and a high maintenance, water intensive patch of grass (esp. during a drought).
I am sure there are at least a dozen alternative solutions that could integrate the structure into the design. Perhaps the Foundation should ask the Georgia Tech architecture students for some ideas. I am sure they would enjoy contributing to the campus environment. |
| 1056 | Antaiwan D. Wilson | Please keep this building to renovate it, as such we can put it to better use!! |
| 1057 | Douglas Fleeman | I was born in georgia and have been in Architecture and building in Georgia since 1973. my father built many of the original dormitories at Emory right after WW2.
Atlanta has lost too many of her historically significant buildings, starting with Sherman burning the city in 1864. |

| 1061 | Mark A Williams | We don't need more vacant lots in the city. What little historical architetural presence left in Atlanta should be treasured. If there are no immediate plans for developing or even if there are plans, this strutured should be saved for future generations to enjoy Atlanta's rich history. Just look at the monstrocity that is Peachtree Center. Cold, bland filler buildings that are as unpleasant in which to work in as they is to view. |

| 1070 | Michael Reid | So many in Atlanta want to build historisist buildings. Why don't we try and save an actual historic building for a change. |

| 1072 | steve chiariello | There must be a way to develop this land so as to complement this impressive structure. |

| 1075 | John Moores | pretty soon all the buildings with any architectural integrity are going to be gone and we will have a developer driven city...look at how many people travel to Las Vegas...Atlanta will have no sense of place-pretty soon we will lose the Downtown Library and the Buckhead Library, arguably the two most important architectural works in the city, and Atlantic Station will be the architectural and cultural highlight of the city-I just can't wait.Walmart and West Elm-awesome. |
| 1076 | David D. Emory MCRP '04 | As a graduate of the City and Regional Planning program, I am astounded that Tech would even think about demolishing this landmark building, especially considering that its design is the work of Georgia Tech graduates, one of whom was instrumental to the establishment of the College of Architecture 100 years ago this year. The demolition of the Crum & Forster Building would be not only a terrible loss for the Midtown neighborhood, but also a major embarrassment for the Institute and the College of Architecture in particular. |
| 1077 | Anonymous | Atlanta needs to take more pride in their history and save these historic buildings. |
| 1078 | Amy | |
| 1079 | Carlos Perez-Rubio | Please save this Building. It's been far too neglected for far too long, and yet, its potential to be a grand part of the new midtown is far greater tham most other buildings standing, and def much grander than anything being built today. |
| 1080 | Farrah | Save the building! |
| 1081 | Paula Hanson | I am confident that the brilliant Architecture minds of Georgia Tech can develop a desing to incorporate this historic and asthetically beautiful building into the modern proposed expansions. This is my hope. |
| 1082 | Farrah | Save the building! |
| 1083 | Alix Wilcox Nadi | As a graduate of the School of Architecture at Georgia Tech and a practitioner of urban design in Atlanta for over 5 years, it embarrasses me that this issue has even arisen. While I am a supporter of improving Atlanta's streetscapes & pedestrian environment, what could possibly be gained by the additional 18" of streetscape improvements which is not exponentially lost by eliminating such an important and beautiful building that helps give Midtown's fabric its unique charm? Please, do not do this! |

| 1086 | Rick B. Sellers AIA | As a modernist, this building needs to be saved. Georgia Tech should lead by example. |
| 1087 | Maurice Walters, AIA | I urge you to consider alternatives that would allow this fine building to continue to exist. This is an example of the type of historic fabric that Atlanta needs to preserve. In many other cities architects have shown ways to preserve existing historical treasures while adding modern facilities. As a graduate of the College of Architecture at Georgia Tech, I would hope the Georgia Tech Foundation would set an example of leadership in preservation and thoughtful and sustainable design. |
| 1088 | Rod Woodard | The old architecture should be preserved for future generations. |
| 1089 | Chris Jarrett | Save this landmark! Exquisite building. Surely GTF can work with and around this historic gem. |
| 1090 | Jason Wing | Do we really need more grass? How about some more creative greenspace that doesn't require us to demolish the historic structures that contribute to Atlanta's architectural character. |
| 1091 | Charles Heydt | GA Tech, Arch 91 |
| 1092 | Theresa C. Ridley, AIA | Buildings of this architectural and historic character are rare and should be cherished. Please save the "Crum & Forster Building". |

| 1096 | Philip Monk, AIA | As a graduate of Georgia Tech (BArch 73), a practicing architect in the City of Atlanta for over 35 years, and a contributor to the Georgia Tech Foundation's Annual Roll Call, I would urge the Foundatation to reconsider their position and preserve this beautiful building. |
| 1097 | Mary Jane Sasnett | |
| 1098 | Weston J. Waugh | This building helps make the whole Tech Sqare area more interesting and building was designed by your early graduates. Listen to your own institution, GA Tech wants to save the building! |
