So much beautiful architecture in this thread! We have a few early-skyscrapers, from 1897-1905, here in Atlanta. I guess the most famous of these is the (1897) English-American Building, better known as the Flatiron Building, today.

The (1898) W.D. Grant Building is maybe a lesser-known in Atlanta from that time:
