You can live in Atlanta History

The transformation of the Troy-Peerless building is now complete. For those that didn’t even know this building was being renovated, developer Miller Gallman has taken this 80-year old building, which was originally a laundry, and turned it into some of the most charming, authentic and unique lofts in the city. This means that you have the opportunity to live in a building that has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1999. For the complete history of the building in the Old Fourth Ward neighborhood: the Troy-Peerless building began as a laundry in 1929, and continued to be a laundry until the late 1960s. At this time Sears purchased the Isaac Moscowitz-designed building to be a milwork facility. Eventually, Sears discontinued operations, leaving the building empty until 1996 when Miller Gallman began the process turning the old building into modern lofts.

As Atlanta, as a city, has gone through many renovations, we’re lucky that this building was not torn down to make way for some new high-rise development. However, it remained intact, and now is one of the most desired loft communities in the city. The building houses 32 renovated lofts with tiny features that give each condo feel, like exposed brick, metal truss ceilings, industrial windows and surviving artifacts from the building. Originally, Miller Gallman wanted to convert the building to apartments, but has changed his mind and the condo lofts are now available.
