Asheville's Historic Architecture (Landmarks)

Asheville, known for its architectural diversity and intriguing Art Deco style, has been fortunate in attracting brilliant architects who, with imaginative foresight and design expertise, have created lasting testaments in brick and stone. Local architectural enthusiast Richard Hansley recounts the history behind dozens of Ashevilleï¿½s most prominent buildings and historical neighborhoods in Ashevilleï¿½s Historic Architecture. Discover how Douglas Ellington, Richard Sharp Smith, James Vester Miller and Tony Lord influenced this busy metropolis, as landmarks like the Jackson Building, the Grove Park Inn and the Art Deco City Building were constructed along the cityï¿½s thriving streets. These buildings have stood the test of time and remain as breathtaking in concept and appearance today as when first completed.
