Piedmont was established in 1905 as the Piedmont Sanitarium, the successor to Amster's private sanitorium, in the former mansion of
Charles Thomas Swift of
S.S.S. Tonic. The mansion was located at the northwest corner of Capitol and Crumley streets in the then-affluent
Washington-Rawson neighborhood. The name was changed to Piedmont Hospital and eventually the hospital took up an entire square block. The Washington-Rawson neighborhood was razed in the early 1960s to make way for
Atlanta–Fulton County Stadium and its parking lots; now the site is part of the large
Center Parc Stadium parking lot.
