George W. Adair, Jr.
George Washington Adair, Jr. (b. 1874, Atlanta) was the son of Col. George Washington Adair, an important developer of real estate in Atlanta and of the Atlanta streetcar system. George, Jr. also worked in real estate development in partnership with his brother Forrest, and together they developed today's historic neighborhoods such as Adair Park, West End Park (now known as Westview), and, in conjunction with Asa Candler, Druid Hills. He married Sarah Glenn in 1897.
Mansion
The Adairs resided in the Adair Mansion (1904), which still stands in the Virginia Highland neighborhood of Atlanta at 964 Rupley Drive, and is as of 2011 divided into upscale apartments. The Mediterranean-style house was nearly turned into a country club in 1914, with tennis courts and a golf course.
