The Olympia Building is a landmark at the absolute center of Atlanta, Five Points in Downtown Atlanta. It was built between 1935 and 1936, architects Ivey and Crook. Since 2003 a flashing Coca-Cola sign has stood on top of the building, the space for which Coke pays $8,641 a month in rent (2012 data). As of September 2012 the building was owned by the State of Georgia (as a result of a $3.6 million gift from the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation just before the 1996 Summer Olympics) and was for sale, valued at $2.45 million.^[1][2]
