The National Center for Civil and Human Rights Exterior.

Occupying more than 42,000 square feet in Downtown Atlanta, The Center is located on Pemberton Place®, adjacent to the World of Coca-Cola and the Georgia Aquarium, on land donated by the Coca-Cola Company. The building was designed with sustainability in mind and features a green roof, flanked by two plazas. One plaza welcomes pedestrians from Pemberton Place, while the rear plaza opens onto Ivan Allen Jr. Boulevard and features a glass and steel water sculpture with etched quotations from Nelson Mandela and Margaret Mead.
