The Colonnades, Garden apartment building in Virginia-Highland, Atlanta, US
The Colonnades consists of two three-story buildings with 12 apartments each, positioned perpendicular to North Highland Avenue around a Mediterranean landscaped courtyard.
Construction of this residential complex began in 1916 after Lucian Lamar Knight, a historian and journalist for the Atlanta Constitution, subdivided land near Ponce de Leon Avenue.
The buildings incorporate Italianate architectural elements with white columns against red brick, decorative roofs, and stucco work that influenced later design movements.
Located at 734-746 North Highland Avenue, this residential complex offers 24 apartment units distributed across two separate structures with garden access.
The property features large white columns creating defined spaces, broken pediments above doorways, and brick and terra-cotta framing around square openings.
