The Atlanta Hyatt boasts 1,260 guest rooms and just over 180,000 square feet of ballroom and exhibit space. Using the construction technology and trends of the time, the exterior surfaces of the hotel were constructed of exposed river rock aggregate consolidated concrete walls. This was a popular building material, but one that often left gaps of uneven areas where the river rocks were not evenly distributed.

Using the construction technology and trends of the time, the exterior surfaces of the hotel were constructed of exposed river rock aggregate consolidated concrete walls. This was a popular building material, but one that often left gaps of uneven areas where the river rocks were not evenly distributed. After years of pollution from busy city streets and mass transportation, the concrete matrix became too dark, the bare spots became very obvious, and the building in general took on a dirty unattractive appearance.

On March 8, 1862 in Hampton Roads, Virginia the first iron clad vessel on the seas, the CSS Virginia (known to Northerners as the Merrimac), had its way with the navy of the Union. It was able to sail unmolested among the ships of the Union Navy and fire at will while taking hits itself with impunity. When dusk arrived the Virginia went to anchorage to wait for sunrise when it could inflict more damage.
