The lobby of Atlanta’s Regency Hyatt hotel, as seen on a late 1960s postcard
Seen on this postcard is the interior of the Regency Hyatt House hotel, located at 265 Peachtree Street NE. When it opened in 1967, the Regency’s groundbreaking 22-story atrium was a dramatic departure from most hotel architecture of its day. Travelers and Atlanta citizens alike were drawn downtown to check out the building’s futuristic design, which included the revolving Polaris restaurant nestled under the blue dome that tops the building.
