Lockwood Greene and Company (Architectural firm).

Hide Profile

Named in honor of the chief donor, Aaron French, the original textile building at the Georgia School of Technology was designed by the Massachusetts architectural firm of Lockwood Greene. It was considered a very modern cotton mill, embodying "the very latest ideas of mill construction." The building was home to Textile Engineering at Georgia Tech until the completion of the Harrison Hightower Textile Engineering Building in 1949.
