IN ARCHITECTURE
Brick Architecture of the 1996 Olympics
Reston, Va., November 4, 1996- Six brick structures used by athletes and spectators during the 1996 Olympics are featured in the November issue of Brick in Architecture, published by the Brick Institute of America (BIA). Brick in Architecture is inserted quarterly in Architecture magazine.
The six Atlanta structures highlighted include the Georgia State University Village, the Georgia Institute of Technology Graduate Living Center, Center Street Apartments, Hemphill Avenue Apartments, the 1996 Olympic Stadium and Centennial Olympic Park. All of these structures were designed in brick to be functional and durable, as well as aesthetically appealing. Brick allowed the architects of the living centers, apartments, and the stadium to create buildings that are compatible with their surroundings and visibly appealing, despite their massive size. In Centennial Olympic Park, two colors of commemorative brick were used to create a unique arrangement of plazas and walkways that now are part of one of the largest completed commemorative brick programs in the country.
According to BIA Marketing Director Charles N. Farley, brick was the best choice for these projects. "Brick is a universal building material-so it's only natural that many of the Olympic structures were built in brick. People of all cultures are familiar and comfortable with it." The brick projects now have become a part of the Games' enduring legacy to Atlanta.
BIA is a 60-year-old trade organization serving brick manufacturers through marketing programs, government relations, manpower development, engineering and research.
