The Barber-Pittman House in Valdosta, Georgia was built in 1915. It was a work of architect Lloyd Barton Greer. The house was built for E.R. Barber, who was both an inventor and the first Coca-Cola bottler located outside Atlanta. [2] The builder's daughter, Ola Barber Pittman, gave the house to the citizens of Valdosta on the condition that the house would not be sold. [2] The house was restored and is used as the headquarters for the Valdosta-Lowndes Chamber of Commerce. [2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The listing included three contributing buildings. [1]
