Atlanta & West Point Railroad Freight Depot, 1871


The Atlanta & West Point Railroad freight depot was a brick-and-stone Italianate structure built in 1871. It was located on Decatur Street at Pratt Street on a site now lost to a parking deck and the Downtown Connector.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in March 1976, but was demolished not long after its NR listing.
