The RADCO Companies (RADCO) has acquired The American Hotel, the historically significant 315-room, full-service hotel in Downtown Atlanta from Legacy Ventures, which has been retained to continue providing management services for the property. Additional terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Opened in 1962 as the American Motor Hotel, the property has a rich history as the first racially integrated hotel in downtown Atlanta and was cited as an important catalyst in the relocation of Major League Baseball’s Braves franchise from Milwaukee to Atlanta in 1966. The American Hotel became a fixture of the civil rights movement and hosted meetings of influential leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr., who is now depicted in a mural on the western wall of the property.
