The Albert E. Thornton House at 105 W. Paces Ferry Rd., Atlanta, Georgia was built in 1938. It was designed by architect Philip T. Shutze in Regency Revival architecture.

Shutze was once regarded as "the nation's foremost living classical architect". He and his firm designed seven of the mansions on Atlanta's West Paces Ferry Road. His landscape design for the "Swan House", another of the mansions, was important to the overall success of that home's English Renaissance Revival architecture.^[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.^[1]
