Buena Vista

Buena Vista is an antebellum plantation house completed by Capt. William Montgomery, a contemporary of Prattville's founder, Daniel Pratt. Its “Deep South” architecture reflects the Federal style with the later addition of a Colonial Revival facade that includes a portico with Ionic columns and a cast ironwork balcony. Notable features include delicately crafted fanlights over the front entrance and in the gable ends, as well as a circular staircase spiraling 24 feet, elaborate plaster cornice moldings, and spectacular ceiling medallions. The home is owned by the Union Camp Corporation, maintained by the Autauga County Heritage Association, and was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
