    A major landmark for the city of Atlanta as it highlights the history of not only the city with hosting of the Olympics, but also because it was the 100th anniversary edition of the Olympics. While the tower and the bridge are still in great shape and bring back memories of “The Greatest”, Mohammad Ali lighting up the cauldron, it’s rather sad the little attention the City of Atlanta has paid to this historic landmark. It is a little out of the way, close to what is now the Georgia State University Stadium (former Olympic stadium), a little run down, with many of the signs no longer even legible. If you’re a sports or history enthusiast, it’s still worth the visit. Catch a glimpse of history.

    Very nice...got to see the torch lit up for the Olympic marathon trials back in February. This is located in a huge parking lot adjacent to the old Braves stadium so you can park for free and take some pictures while you're there.

    Great photo ops here. Nice that even after all these years this still is in place noting where the 96 Olympics were located. Great piece of history for sure and a must see when in Atlanta. We stopped in for the game on our way down to Cashiers and it didn't disappoint.

    It's cool but unfortunately, there is no way to reach the cauldron as there are no stairs. Also, the cables across the street and the traffic lights remove any possibility of a clean picture. Might be a good idea to move it to the Olympic Park instead of having out there in the middle of nowhere.

    Drove to Atlanta….I was finally going to see the stone that my dad purchased in 1996 with my name on it. Silly me… I did not check to see if one of the main attractions to the city was closed and there was no way to see it. After the shooting right near the park the night before where 5 teenagers were shot by other teenagers riding on scooters .. that we missed by 5 minutes. I believe that I will not EVER be back to this crime ridden city. Just know if you go to this city and you are a law abiding citizen please be off the street by 9pm for your own safety.

    Not the best area in Atlanta to be by yourself...just a head's up. Lots of homeless individuals surround the tower & walk/live up & down the street approaching it. Went recently in February on a Sunday and there were beer cans & bottles everywhere at the tower, & homeless citizens sleeping underneath the tower. Sad Atlanta doesn't do a better upkeep. Personally, I'd rather visit Centennial Park near the CNN Center.
