Providence On Ponce
Renovated in 2004 and located in the Virginia-Highland / Poncey-Highland neighborhood, The Providence on Ponce Lofts turns a former Atlanta Church in 22 one- and two-bedroom residences with loft units that once housed the sanctuary.
By incorporating several “Green” building and sustainable development features into the architectural plans, this adaptive reuse of a mid-20th century church
makes Providence on Ponce a truly unique residential property for our City.
A Loft and Condominium Ideal
Every successful residential community starts with a vision. At Providence on Ponce, our vision for the renovation of a mid-20th century church centers around three core principles:
First. The architectural design of the units and building exteriors should preserve and respect the architectural history of the existing
building and the surrounding neighborhood while also providing functional living spaces for the new residents;
Second. Consistent with the adaptive reuse of the existing building, “Green” building techniques, processes and products should be incorporated into the final design and planning criteria, provided that such sustainable development measures are compatible with the other core principles of the project; and
Third. Each of the condominium units should be competitively priced in order to attract homebuyers from the diverse group of persons who frequent the many local restaurants and businesses in the surrounding Virginia-Highland neighborhood.
