In 1915, less than a year after opening, the Healey Building was threatened by a fire. Putting it out proved difficult since the building’s standpipes were empty, but quick thinking on the part of the fire chief saved the day. Full story: https://t.co/gA6asPJb5v @ATLFireRescue
True crime (?) story from 1930, when one of the Healey's night-shift elevator operators was found unconscious. At first two staff thought he was in a drunken stupor and left him, but later they checked and his skull was fractured! Story: https://t.co/JUg53eYxas
101 yrs. ago, there was a major robbery at the Healey. What was $40K in 1918 is close to $700K today. The good news is that investigators didn’t think anyone would be dumb enough to try to do something with the securities. Full story: https://t.co/jMS8Vc8oPf #atlantahistory

In 1918, Atlanta’s most prominent real estate firm moved offices, bringing a decades-old business into the Healey. This was important enough news to merit a long column in the Constitution. https://t.co/62J1Id2R7L #atlantahistory#downtownatlanta
Vintage Healey: Vintage ads placed by the Healey Barber Shop. All three appeared in the Southern Israelite, where businesses frequently took out ads with well wishes for Jewish holidays. Meanwhile the Healey has THREE hair salons today! #DowntownAtlanta@downtownatlanta
From the commercial side of the building. One completely new thing is the exposed wall on the north side of the Broad Street entrance. That’s the original brick wall of building which houses Rosa’s Pizza, Naan Stop and an office suite upstairs. #DowntownAtlanta

Postcard dated 1923 with a perspective of what's now Margaret Mitchell Square, at Forsyth and Peachtree. At least, the Candler Building, at right a whole number of buildings that aren't with us or weren't built then, plus the Healey Building. #DowntownAtlanta
View looking down from the 13th floor of the Healey Building: top of the rotunda, roofs of the Broad Street building, and the greenhouse glass over the mezzanine that provides access to the upper floors of the Broad Street buildings. #downtownatlanta
