Since that time, Poteet Funeral Home and the Augusta Lodge No. 205, B.P.O. of Elks have owned the building. William G. Hatcher Sr. and MAU Inc. purchased the building in 1993.

Built in the 1960s as a modern annex to the historic Richmond Hotel, the Richmond on Greene has been meticulously remodeled and upgraded to become Augusta's premiere private and historic event location. After the hotel closed, the building was used for a period of time as the Augusta Athletic Club. It sat vacant for many years before Augusta businessman Donnie Thompson purchased it and created this spectacular venue. The four-story facility includes two floors of parking, a third floor with a spacious welcoming lobby, a ballroom, the Great Room and a commercial kitchen. Rooms are available for special events on the fourth floor.

Sacred Heart Catholic Church, built by Jesuit priests, had its first service Dec. 2, 1900. After 70 years of operation, the last service was conducted on July 4, 1971, and the facility was closed. The magnificent barrel-vaulted ceiling, the 92 stained glass windows, and intricate brickwork make up this architectural gem. After years of vacancy, vandalism, and near destruction, this treasured historic site was reopened in 1987 as a prized landmark and a vibrant facility for community use as a cultural center.
