Comment: There are a few unsourced statements. The quote doesn’t make much sense to me. I’m also worried about overdetail. Do we need to mention that “He was the architect for four houses that became the subject of a lawsuit between contractor and client over delays and extra costs due to the client holding up provision of supplies.”? Or when Atlanta's Terminal Station was built? GoldRomean (talk) 17:31, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- What to include and what not to include is always up for a debate. His hotel was built after the terminal and was one of several to serve that train terminal. So seems relevant and important context to include. The lawsuit isn't hugely notable does note one of his projects, a client, and a lawsuit he was a part to. Inthough
it worth including. FloridaArmy (talk) 21:26, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
George Laine and G. W. Laine should link here
George W. Laine was an architect in Atlanta, Georgia active from 1893 to 1909.[1] Laine had the same office address as Henrietta Dozier, Atlanta's first female architect. He designed a Carpenter Gothic church for Norman Dodge on St. Simons Island. It survived an 1880s hurricane and was renamed Lovely Lane Chapel in 1949.
October 28, 1882, the Advertiser and Appeal in Brunswick, Georgia reported "Mr. G. W. Laine, architect, Allanta Ga., is on the Island superintending the building interests of the Ga., (?????) Land and Lumber Co., principal of which we mention the St. Simons (?????) turpentine. school house and hospital building."[2]
In 1908, his office was in Atlanta's Peters Building.[3] It was shared with Henrietta Dozier.[4]
He was the architect for four houses that became the subject of a lawsuit between contractor and client over delays and extra costs due to the client holding up provision of supplies.[5]
The 1898 High Victorian Eclectic Farlinger building (Farlinger Apartments) he designed at 343 Peachtree Street NE in Atlanta was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1981.[1] It was photographed in 1985[6] before being demolished in 1988 (National Register of Historic Places listings in Fulton County, Georgia). Another building he designed is in the West Darien Historic District.
He designed what became Scoville Hotel built in 1908 to service customers from Atlanta's Terminal Station that was built in 1905. The Union Church he designed in 1880 on St. Simons Island was renamed Lovely Lane Chapel in 1949 commemorating Lovely Lane Chapel in Baltimore, Maryland.
