Front Avenue Industrial District Plans Added

With a nearly eight block continuous facade, the Front Avenue Industrial District in Columbus Georgia offers a range of buildings featuring late 19th Century commercial and industrial architecture. Constructed between 1867 and 1902, the buildings feature a similarity of scale and consistent use of material and detailing that create a sense of belonging often missing in industrial scenery created over a longer span of time.
