The Coca-Cola Co. took Atlantans back in time Monday when they adorned a building a Five Points with a life-sized photo depicting the long-ago demolished Jacob’s Pharmacy where Coke was first served and sold on May 8, 1886.

We should to do this other bland, buildings downtown. Best example I would like to see is the outside the Westin Peachtree painted with a mural depicting the old Grady Hotel.

Asked if Coca-Cola would be willing to paint a permanent historic façade of Jacob’s Pharmacy on the Five Points tower, Kent said: “It’s a good idea.” And he added they would hope to make that a reality.
Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed agreed.
The current image is just a photo screen film that is not durable enough to become a permanent installation.

What a shame it isn't permanent. It really looks nice. It should be a mural somewhere.
