After more than two years of construction, the conversion and expansion of a landmark Atlanta church into condos is nearly finished, with the first half-dozen homeowners moving in where countless Atlantans worshipped, attended school, or were married across six decades. Druid Hills United Methodist Church, built by architects and developers Ivey & Crook in 1954, is now called 1200 Ponce, a project by seasoned Atlanta-based developers Minerva along Ponce de Leon Avenue. Minerva’s plans call for a community of four buildings with 51 condos and townhomes to come together over the next couple of years. The first component, the Choate + Hertlein Architects-designed conversion of the former Greek Revival-stye sanctuary and adjoining preschool, includes 23 condos. Some of them are multistory units meant to live like townhomes where the pews once stood, with banks of towering, arched church windows retained. Read The Full Article in Urbanize Atlanta
