The Swann and Old CE buildings will be toured October 19 by members of the Association of University Interior Designers (AUID), who will be in Atlanta for their annual conference.  The buildings are of significance because of renovations that blend the high tech functionality needed for classroom space while preserving the classical features of these historic campus buildings.  Located at 613 Cherry Street, Swann was built in 1900 and renovated in 2005 to house the School of Modern Languages.  The Old Civil Engineering Building, at 221 Bobby Dodd Way, was built in 1939 and renovated in 2009 as home to the Schools of Economics and History, Technology, and Society. The Old CE renovation is also of note for its Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification by the U.S. Green Building Council. The architects for both renovations were Surber Barber Choate & Hertlein.  Read more at http://www.iac.gatech.edu/news-and-events/story?id=59081
