In 1984, Emory University wanted to expand upon the Alumni Memorial University Center, or AMUC, without defacing the classic Emory marble exterior wall of the building. Renowned Atlanta architect John Portman rose to the challenge building a new atrium around the wall. The result was the Coca-Cola Commons.
