Lemuel P. Grant Mansion

It is one of only three antebellum houses in the city of Atlanta still standing in their original locations.

The mansion was owned by Lemuel P. Grant, Atlanta's quintessential railroad man as well as a major landowner and civic leaderafter.

The house was constructed of buff stucco with 2-foot (61 cm) wide walls, 10-foot (3.0 m) windows, nine fireplaces and a ballroom.

Beginning in the 1940s, neglect and fires damaged the mansions; it remained without its four porches and second story, and so part of the first floor was open to the elements.

In 2006 it completed the stabilization of the mansion's walls and in 2007 purchased an adjoining lot.
