  • Jcpenney BUILDING 732 BROAD STREET | AUGUSTA GA
    THE JCPenney BUILDING 732 BROAD STREET | AUGUSTA GA Jordan Trotter Commercial Real Estate is proud to exclusively market the historic JCPenney Building located along the 700 block of Broad Street in Augusta, Georgia. Purchase Price: $1,975,000 Size: 78,000 Square Feet Year Built: 1895 Zoning: B2 (General Business) *Located in the Opportunity Zone *Eligible for Historic and Special Tax Credits The 700 block is quickly becoming the entertainment district of Augusta with the Imperial Theatre, The Miller Theater, and the future relocation of the Morris Museum of Art across the street. TAX CREDITS UNDERSTANDING HISTORIC TAX CREDITS The federal Historic Tax Credit (HTC) program was enacted in 1976 to encourage the preservation and rehabilitation of historically significant buildings. For a property to be eligible for the HTC Program it must be listed in the National Register of Historic Places, or be located in a registered historic district. Fortunately for the JC Penney Building, the 700 block of Broad Street is located within the Augusta Downtown Historic District, which makes this building eligible for all programs of the National Register. WHAT IS THE INCENTIVE? A 20 percent federal tax credit of Qualified Rehabilitation Expenditures (QRE’s) for the cost incurred during the rehabilitation of a certified historic structure for commercial, agricultural, industrial or residential rental purposes. In addition, the State of Georgia offers two tax incentives. The first is known as the Georgia State Income Tax Credit for Rehabilitated Historic Property. This offers a 25% tax credit on qualified rehab expenses against Georgia income taxes. The second is the State Preferential Property Tax Assessment for Rehabilitated Historic Property.

Historic preservation of cemeteries is a growing concern as many communities find ways to deal with vandalism, erosion of stones, and neglect of plots and landscaping. Historic cemeteries generally showcase peaceful grounds with intriguing monuments, gravestones, dates, and names. A fount of information regarding genealogy, local historical figures and iconography can be found in cemeteries. Many graveyards have been lost due to poor planning, natural overgrowth, and fading memories; however, with community awareness and renewed respect for the past, preservation of cemeteries is becoming a higher priority in many historic cities across the United States including Augusta.

But instead of enjoying her last summer of freedom before setting her plan in motion, the usually indefatiga­ ble Melissa was suddenly plagued by awful headaches. "It was a dizzying pressure headache that never went away," she says. "I knew something was wrong. I just didn't feel right." She went to her lifelong pediatrician, who was con­ cerned enough about the severity and sudden onset of the pain to order an immediate CT scan.

    CHAPTER 6 COMMUNITY FACILITIES AND SERVICES 119 120 Chapter 6– Community Facilities and Services 7B INTRODUCTION Community facilities and services are important to the future of the city. They contribute to the health, safety and welfare of residents, improve the quality of life, and foster new housing and business development. The timing and location of new community facilities and services also influence private development.

This chapter includes an inventory and assessment of public facilities and services provided by the city and other public and private organizations. Existing conditions and needs are identified for such facilities as the water and sewerage systems, public safety, solid waste, recreation and parks, schools, libraries and other cultural facilities. An inventory of hospitals and other public health facilities is also included. GENERAL45B GOVERNMENT A ten-member board of commissioners and a mayor govern the city of Augusta.
