History
The building, designed by Pringle and Smith, was originally known as the Carlton Bachelor Apartments and served as a "bachelor hotel".[2] Later, the building would be renamed the Cox-Carlton Hotel.[3] Having previously housed a Days Inn, in October 2004 the building reopened after an extensive renovation as the Hotel Indigo Atlanta Midtown.[4]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 1, 2006. The hotel is across the street from the Fox Theatre and a contributing property to the Fox Theatre Historic District.
