National Register of Historic Places - Mrs. George Arthur Howell Jr. House (Howell--Kilpatrick House)

Statement of Significance: The Howell House is significant in architecture because it is a fine example of the Neo-Classical Revival style of the 1930s, during which many previously popular architectural styles were revived. It contains a symmetrical front facade, a centered, four-columned Greek Revival portico and a symmetrical first floor plan. It is also significant as a work of Cooper and Cooper, a firm consisting of two Atlanta-born architects, who were brothers, who designed this along with many other fine homes. Many of the original furnishings remain with the house today. The house was built by a recent widow whose husband had been a prominent co-owner of an Atlanta insurance agency. Her daughter was married to Joseph W. Cooper, Jr., one of the architects for the house. This house, one of about two dozen individually eligible houses in this area, even though it was built twenty years after the area opened for development, reflects the high style of architecture and workmanship the entire neighborhood came to symbolize.
