No injuries were reported in the fire, which broke out at Baptist Towers in the 1800 block of Myrtle Street in southwest Atlanta.
Channel 2 Action News reported that the flames were confined to one fifth-floor apartment.
Residents were allowed back in after the fire was doused and the smoke cleared from the 10-story building.
