Boss Chimney on Argonne in Buckhead designed by Historical Concepts


There's an estate house building boom in Buckhead: prestigious streets, teardowns, our finest architects and builders, whopper houses. The Boss is different. It's a terminated vista. You can see the chimney long before you can see the house.

Kind of busy at our place for the next month. But not too busy to show you Terry's Tiny Video of "Boss Chimney."

Boss Chimney is at the corner of Argonne and Pine Valley where you can see new homes designed by Stan Dixon, Frank Neely, Bobby McAlpine, and Terry Pylant (who designed "Boss Chimney" for Historical Concepts).


There are 3 double-flue Lutyens inspired boss chimneys on the house but this one is the "Boss of Bosses." It terminates the sight-line as you drive west on Argonne from Habersham.

Go see how Boss Chimney says, "Come Hither."


Bravo.

Atlanta's Only Twisted Chimney?

Is this Atlanta's only twisted chimney?

I don't think you can see this from the street even when the leaves are gone.

I found myself in the house next door.

I glanced out of the window to see this.

I'll bet you can't guess where. But you are welcome to try. Hint: it's not a Buckhead mansion; it's not even a mansion.

I couldn't get a good shot of the whole thing.

I love the enthusiasm.

But few will ever see it.

Do you know of other twisted chimneys?
