Already a local historic district with all the rules and regs that go along with that, Ponce de Leon Court is setting its sights on state and national recognition…along with some snazzy tax credit options.

From Regina at the Decatur Minute…

Several residents of Ponce Court attended a hearing on June 4th at the Georgia State Historic Preservation Office and were given the great news that their neighborhood is considered worthy to be listed on the Georgia Register of Historic Places. One of the attendees was 82 year old Graham Thomas who lived on the street from 1920-1940. Next, the district nomination will be sent to the National Register of Historic Places in Washington DC where the nomination will hopefully be accepted and Ponce Court will be listed as an important historic district in the United States.

The proud and happy residents can now take advantage of significant property tax relief programs and income tax credits made available to properties listed on the Georgia and National Registers of Historic Places.
