Cox Capitol Theater | Macon, GA

Built in 1897 as a bank and transformed into Macon’s first “modern theater” in 1916, the Cox Capitol Theatre later fell into disrepair and closed in 1973. Purchased by a non-profit in 2004, the building underwent a major restoration led by Dunwody/Beeland in collaboration with Tony Long and Piedmont Construction. Notably, it became the first structure in Georgia where a non-profit successfully applied for Historic Tax Credits and sold them to another institution. Today, the theatre thrives as a versatile live entertainment and rental venue, blending historic charm with modern functionality.
