Emory University

Emory University anchors the Druid Hills area with its classic white buildings and landscaped campus.   Architect Henry Hornbostel worked on the master plan for Emory University.   Hornbostel's grand Italian Renaissance plan included the Quadrangle and a colonade which was never built.   His plan was scaled back, but the Quadrangle was built as he planned with buildings spaced evenly around a central grassy area.   From the 1920s to the 1950s, Ivey & Crook were responsible for the design and construction of a number of buildings on the campus and built almost 40 buildings on the Emory campus.   Their buildings included the Candler Library, Bishop's Hall, Dobbs University Center, and the Administration Building.   The Michael C. Carlos Museum (with mummies and more) is also a part of Emory University.
