Committee of the Atlanta Preservation Center:
2007 List of Endangered Buildings:
Randolph Lucas House, 1924
Address: 2495 Peachtree Rd., NW
Owner/Contact: 2500 Peachtree Street Condominium Association, 404-261-1244
Threat: In 2006 2500 Peachtree Street Condominium Association filed an application to rezone the house, thus removing the city’s historic designation and enabling the association to demolish it.
The Randolph-Lucas House is a reminder of the homes that once lined Peachtree Street in Buckhead. Designed by Atlanta architect P. Thorton Marye, the Georgian Revival home was patterned after an 18th century Virginia home owned by an ancestor of the original owner. To redevelop the property for condos in 1997, the developer, Urban Group, agreed to designation of the house as an Atlanta Historic Building, to move it 65 feet and to restore and maintain it.
