Ellard Mercantile Exchange consists of four buildings (approx. 56,000 sq ft) constructed of structural steel wrapped on all four sides with handmade brick and carved stone.  Erected at approx. $21MM in 2007, the buildings feature authentic eighteenth and nineteenth century architectural artifacts.  Some of the antiquities included are a stained-glass window from Germany crafted and hand painted in 1892; ten-foot-tall solid mahogany doors that are over two hundred years old and were imported from Argentina; one hundred fifty-year-old hand carved English oak doors with a French oak pediment; and Romeo and Juliet cast iron balconies imported from France, circa 1825.   Ellard Mercantile Exchange is the crown jewel of the Chattahoochee River corridor.
