The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation will host an open house this Saturday, June 3, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., as construction nears completion on an affordable single-family home in Southwest Atlanta.
Atlanta’s dedication to preserving history was on display last month as the city received seven awards from the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation.
