Built in 1924 and remodeled in 1958.","why_significant":"It is an unusual early 20th century Atlanta apartment building, notable for its height and early use of fireproof concrete post-and-beam construction. It is a significant work of architect G. Lloyd Preacher and one of few remaining examples of his high-rise residential design in Atlanta. It also documents the growing professional middle and upper class of 1920s and 1930s Atlanta through its tenants.","narrative":"Rising seven stories at the corner of West Peachtree and 11th Streets in Atlanta, this L-shaped brick apartment building dates to 1924. Designed by Atlanta architect G. Lloyd Preacher and built by the contracting firm Gude and Company, it used concrete post-and-beam framing, an early fireproof construction method. Most early 20th century Atlanta garden apartments were two or three stories, so its height sets it apart. Exterior features include cut limestone coursing at the base, diamond-pattern brickwork between the upper floors, balconies, high parapets and corner gables. Inside, marble lobby baseboards, oak floors, French doors and hexagonal tile borders survive. The first floor was remodeled in 1958, and nearby homes were cleared for parking in 1969. It is among few remaining Preacher high-rise residences in the city. In the 1920s and 1930s it housed physicians, nurses, brokers, lawyers and other professionals, many tied to its original owner, Wynne Claughton Realty Sales Corporation. Renovation was underway for continued residential use.","period_of_significance":"1924","architect_builder":"G.
