National Register Listings: Atlanta--Adair Park, 1993

Correspondence, minutes, legal documents, printed material, photographs and audio-visual items comprise the records of the Atlanta Preservation Center [APC]. Board and executive committee meeting materials document the governance of the organization. The bulk of the files were created by long-time executive director Boyd Coons. Their contents document all aspects of APC's activities, including education, fundraising, grants, work with allied organizations, monitoring at-risk historic properties in Atlanta, interaction with City of Atanta and other governmental offices, and the day-to-day management of APC, its staff, and properties. The records contain extensive files on the annual Phoenix Flies events coordinated by APC, as well as material about tours and other events hosted by APC. Meeting materials, reports, and notes document Coons' service on the Atlanta Beltline Tax Allocation District [TAD] Committee, 2006-2008. The records include research and records related to the L. P. Grant Mansion and its restoration, as well as other Atlanta buildings and neighborhoods including the English Avenue School, the Crum and Forster Building, Peachtree Heights, and the Rufus Rose House. Extensive files, 1969-2020, document Atlanta buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A large quantity of photographic prints and slides depict Atlanta's past and present built environment, as well as the activities of APC itself.
