Randolph Lucas Mansion Gets 120-Day Reprieve
The historic home will be safe at least for the next four months, and the Buckhead Heritage Society hopes it will be moved by then.
The historic Randolph-Lucas Mansion, which sits in front of a condominium complex at 2500 Peachtree Road, will be saved, at least for another 120 days.
On Tuesday, the Buckhead Heritage Society signed an agreement with the condo association for the four-month reprieve, which prevents the 1920s-era home to be torn down during that period. The Buckhead Heritage Society is hoping to save the home in that time.
The condo association planned to retrieve its permit that following day, to demolish the mansion, so the agreement comes just in time, according to WXIA-TV 11 Alive.
