It is located within the Woodruff Arts Center at 1280 Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

The first Atlanta Symphony Orchestra recording (a Robert Shaw Christmas album) was made there in 1975.

Not known for its acoustic excellence, a newer hall in a different location (Atlanta Symphony Center) was proposed in the early 2005, but this project was later abandoned, due to a lack of funding.

However, there are plans in place to renovate the existing hall in order to bring it up to standard.

The hall also offers wireless audio aids for audience members who are hearing impaired.
