Rhodes Hall
Granite Romanesque Revival mansion built by a furniture magnate, with preserved Victorian interiors.
This guide to Rhodes Hall in Atlanta traces furniture dealer Amos Rhodes, who arrived in a rebuilding Atlanta in eighteen seventy-five with almost nothing and built his business on a door-to-door installment plan, sending a collector to gather a few coins a week from customers who could not pay up front. It follows the fortune that grew from those weekly rounds into the granite castle he raised on Peachtree Street between nineteen oh-two and nineteen oh-four, modeled on castles he and Amanda admired along Germany's Rhine River, wired with electric lights and call buttons that startled early visitors.
