Most of Grant Park is designated as a Historic Zoning District. When work on the exterior of a property in the District is proposed, a Certificate of Appropriateness must be obtained from the
Atlanta Urban Design Commission as well as the normal building permit. It is the intent of the City's Historic Preservation Ordinance that any changes which occur to a designated property be in keeping with the historic character of the building or district.
Certificate of Appropriateness forms are available online at the UDC's website. Click
