Map of Atlanta Neighborhoods







First developed in 1904, Ansley Park was the dream of Edwin P. Ansley who, along with several prominent Atlanta businessmen of the time, purchased a large plot of land north of the city from longtime owner George Washington Collier. Ansley envisioned a new motorcar-oriented suburb of wide, winding streets and green parks designed to attract Atlantas wealthiest and most prestigious families. In fact, Ansley Park was home to Georgias Governors Mansion for many decades. Ansleys vision of a gracious, harmonious neighborhood that would be an oasis in the midst of the bustling city of Atlanta lives on today, in great part thanks to the efforts of the Ansley Park Civic Association. Since the 1960s, the Association has been an active force in maintaining the neighborhoods integrity and sense of community.

Avondale Estates

Avondale Estates is located approximately seven miles east of downtown Atlanta and was founded in 1924 by George Francis Willis, who purchased the entire village of Ingleside to create a planned community. The city was named after Stratford-upon-Avon, England, birthplace of Shakespeare. Downtown buildings were designed in a Tudor style to reinforce this image, as were many of the houses in the city. Community amenities such as a lake, tennis courts, clubhouse, and a swimming pool were built for residents. It was also the birthplace of the Waffle House chain; the first restaurant opened in the city in 1955. 

Today Avondale Estates is a picturesque historic city with a small town feel where a traditional neighborhood shares a wonderful setting with a healthy, vibrant downtown area. Residents here enjoy a charming, gentle pace of a small town and neighbors go out of their way to get to know each other and make time to greet fellow residents and friends.

Brookhaven

Originally developed around 1910 as Atlanta's first country club neighborhood, Brookhaven, located on the northern edge of Buckhead is an enclave of large, elegant Tudor, Colonial, Georgian and English cottage homes. Lush landscapes, beautiful arrays of gardens, and meandering streets are indicative of Brookhaven. In the 1980s, this area was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Solomon Goodwin, the area's first white settler, homesteaded this area in the early 1830s. The Goodwin home and a small graveyard at 3931 Peachtree Road were once a landmark for Federal troops closing in on Atlanta during the Civil War. The home is the oldest existing house in DeKalb County.  

Home to the elite Capital City Country Club on East Brookhaven and Club Drive; the area surrounding the golf course is a mecca for walkers, joggers and bike riders. Minutes away from Buckhead's nightlife, the theatre, divine eateries and the shopping experiences of Perimeter Mall, Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza. This neighborhood is a haven for the established and upwardly mobile professional. The area also provides easy accessibility to all major expressways and Brookhaven and Lenox Marta stations.

Cherokee Town & Country Club in Buckhead

Buckhead acquired its unusual name from a long-gone local tavern that prominently displayed a large stuffed buck's head. The community was annexed by Atlanta in 1952, following an earlier attempt by Mayor William B. Hartsfield in 1946 that was voted down by residents. 

The main east-west street is West Pace's Ferry Road, named for a former ferry across the Chattahoochee River. Hardy Pace, one of Atlanta's founders, operated the ferry and owned much of what is now Buckhead, and as far west as Vinings. The main north-south street is Peachtree Road, which extends south into the heart of the city as Peachtree Street. This name change is significant in that it defines a border between Buckhead and midtown. The area north of Buckhead, beyond the Atlanta city limit, is Sandy Springs. 

Buckhead is one of Atlanta's most important business districts, and includes Atlanta's wealthiest neighborhoods, with the Georgia Governor's Mansion, a part-time residence of Elton John, and the Atlanta History Center with its museum and library. Buckhead was also the home of golf legend Bobby Jones until his death in 1971. Although there are some moderately priced homes in the area, the price of most homes and condos starts at around $500,000 and extends well beyond $10,000,000.Buckhead is also one of the major shopping areas in the Southeast, where shoppers spend in excess of $1 billion a year. The primary shopping district comprises Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza. Located diagonally across the street, these sister malls together feature more than 350 shops and boutiques, including Gianni Versace, Jimmy Choo, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Club Monaco. 

Many affluent and famous people have stayed in one of Buckhead's several luxury hotels, which include the InterContinental, the JW Marriott and the Ritz-Carlton. The area also includes more modest lodgings, as well as many restaurants, bars, and nightclubs. Local residents often refer to Buckhead the "Beverly Hills of the South", and Robb Report magazine has ranked it one of the USA's "10 Top Affluent Communities" for "some of the most beautiful mansions, best shopping and finest restaurants in the southeastern United States".

Cabbagetown in Atlanta

Situated just east of downtown Atlanta, Cabbagetown is a historic community, originally founded to support the Fulton Bag & Cotton Mill. It was the presence of the mill which formed the backbone of this community until its closing in 1977. Cabbagetown began as a series of one story homes built by Jacob Elsas, the mill owner, to house the workers who drew their living from his enterprise. . For years, this town has been known as Atlanta's oldest industrial settlement, and many of the original homes are still standing on Cabbagetown's historic streets.  

 


Cabbagetown real estate has grown exponentially since its humble beginnings. The main drag Carroll Street has become the home of some nice restaurants and makes a great people-watching spot. Beginning in 1996, the mill itself has been renovated into the nation’s largest residential loft community — the Fulton Cotton Mill Lofts — which houses everyone from artists and musicians to business professionals. The neighborhood's main festival is the Cabbagetown Reunion, known colloquially by long time residents and displaced residents as "the vegetable", which takes place in the summer. The Chomp and Stomp bluegrass and chili festival takes place in November.

You’ll also find popular restaurants like Agave, the Carroll Street Cafe and Six Feet Under as well as the historic Oakland Cemetery, where many of Atlanta’s most famous residents, including Margaret Mitchell are buried.

Flying Biscuit Cafe

Candler Park is a wonderful neighborhood with beautiful 1920s Craftsman bungalow homes, excellent parks, and a fun business district located on Atlanta's east side near Emory University. The majority of homes in the neighborhood have been renovated and many are true showplaces. Candler Park is a neighborhood with a true sense of community where neighbors know one another and socialize. It is also one of the few neighborhoods in the city that has basically everything you need -- from it's own business district (plus Little Five Points and the new Edgewood Retail district nearby) to wonderful recreation venues, and super-easy access to MARTA rail. It's also just minutes from just about everything else you might want -- Emory University, City of Decatur, Downtown Atlanta, Midtown's arts venues, Virginia-Highland, and the interstate!

Chamblee Antique Mall

In real estate, location is everything. In Chamblee it's just a fringe benefit. Buckhead is only four miles away. But with MARTA's easy downtown access, the DeKalb Peachtree Airport's easy air access, and more than fifty different ethnic restaurants and shops, Chamblee isn't far from the rest of the world either. 

Young, first-time home buyers who want to live inside the perimeter are flocking here. We also have more than our share of antiques. Chamblee is nationally known for "Antique Row", Great Gatsby's and 150 other antique and collectible dealers.

The City Of Clarkston owes much of its beginnings to the Georgia Railroad. In the 1830’s, the Georgia Railroad built a rail line through what is present day Clarkston to connect the merchants of Athens with outlets in Augusta and South Carolina. Because the railroad made Atlanta so accessible for commuting, Clarkston became a community of homeowners who worked in Atlanta. Clarkston became one of the South’s first “suburban” communities. Commuting citizens accounted for much of Clarkston’s early growth.  

The City of Clarkston is centrally located in DeKalb County approximately 10 miles northeast of Atlanta and 5 miles east of Decatur and 5 miles west of Stone Mountain. Clarkston has remained a small city, encompasses approximately 700 acres or 1.1 square miles. The residents and elected officials of Clarkston have enjoyed the small town feel and have therefore never striven to greatly expand the boundaries of the City. Today the railroad still runs through Clarkston as a steadfast reminder of the cities historic beginning.

Historic Decatur Square

Founded in 1823, Decatur is the second oldest municipality in the Atlanta metropolitan area and the seat of DeKalb County. The courthouse square in downtown Decatur is located on a rise of land where two Indian trails once crossed. Historically, the courthouse square served as the community gathering place. Today it continues to be the focus of festivals and special events, and serves as the heart of the community. 

Forget about driving out to the mall, hunting for a parking space and trudging through the same old places! Instead, head for the City of Decatur – your "mallternative" for shopping, dining and nightlife. You'll find more than 200 storefront shops, restaurants, galleries, services and performance venues set along tree-lined streets all around downtown and in Oakhurst village, just south of the square.  

Art galleries continue to spring up around Decatur, bringing a mix of fine art, shopping and nightlife, with openings, exhibitions, and collectible works for sale in a variety of media. Shopping is an adventure in our charming storefront shops where merchants welcome you with one-of-a-kind finds and personalized service.  

Located inside I-285, just minutes east of Atlanta and minutes west of Stone Mountain. There's plenty of parking and easy MARTA access. Decatur is home to many fine professional and service businesses.

City of Doraville

DeKalb was established as Georgia's 56th county and is situated on a natural ridge that runs between Atlanta and Athens, the Continental Divide. The southern boundary is the South River and the northern boundary is the Hightower Trail, a trading path used by Indians. The county has 269 square miles. DeKalb was established from parts of Henry, Fayette and Gwinnett Counties with the General Assembly of the State of Georgia appointing five commissioners who picked land lot 246 in the 15th militia district as the county site.

Downtown Atlanta Neighborhood - Castleberry Hill

If you don't know your Fairlie-Poplar from your Marietta Artery, we can help you by introducing you to each of the Downtown Atlanta Neighborhoods.  

Castleberry Hill The Castleberry Hill Neighborhood, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, represents the most complete warehouse district still surviving in the City of Atlanta. The area, located at the southwest end of the city's Central Business District, is in the midst of a renaissance, with these old commercial structures being turned into dramatic loft homes for the many people attracted by the prospect of living Downtown.  

Centennial Hill is a multi-block, mixed-use development planned for the area north of the Inforum adjacent to Centennial Olympic Park. Centennial Hill commands one of the most visible sites in Downtown Atlanta and bridges two major urban districts. The development will include a large number of apartments and condominiums as well as retail, restaurants, and a children's museum.  

Centennial Place Located on the former site of Techwood and Clark Howard Homes, the nation's first public housing project, this innovative, large-scale residential project was developed through a public-private partnership. It was the Atlanta Housing Authority's first public housing/mixed-income initiative and includes a wide range of apartment sizes with rents varying by income. The neighborhood, now called Centennial Place, is unusual, and urban planners said it is successful, because it is a mixed-income, mixed-use community. In addition to the planned socio-economic mix, the 60-acre community includes a new school, a new YMCA center, a new police mini precinct and a renovated community center. Developers are working to attract a grocery store and retail outlets, as well. 

Fairlie-Poplar The Fairlie-Poplar National Register Historic District provides a rare glimpse into Atlanta's past, visually illustrating its transition from a fledgling, commercial railroad town in the early 1800s to a modern city of skyscrapers today. Atlanta's oldest high-rises, which were concentrated in the area, today stand side-by-side with three and four-story buildings typical of the earlier Victorian period. Nowhere else in Atlanta can one find such a great variety of architectural style, scale and materials intermingled in a charming pedestrian-scaled environment.  

Marietta Street Artery Unofficially beginning Downtown at Centennial Olympic Park and following what was once the Western and Atlantic Railway, this historical neighborhood extends approximately three miles to the northwest on a path emanating from Underground Atlanta. A linear collection of old buildings along the railroad, the Artery has garnered many names over the years including the Marietta Street Corridor, the Marietta Street Historical Industrial Corridor and The Marietta Street Arts Corridor. 

SoNo (South of North Ave.) formerly known as Bedford-Pine is Downtown's earliest redeveloped residential area; its first condominiums opened in the mid-1970s. Since then, this neighborhood has added a mix of condos, apartments and single-family homes, and a neighborhood commercial center.  

Sweet Auburn The rich history of the Sweet Auburn District proves that success against all odds result when individuals invest in their community. This refurbished neighborhood combines a taste of the old town with an edgy modern flavor.

Lullwater House & Park

The Druid Hills Neighborhood is quite old and is home to a large number of Atlanta's historical and cultural landmarks. One of these is the home that was used in the filming of the Academy Award winning movie "Driving Miss Daisy". Two architects, Lewis E. Crook Jr. and Ernest Ivey, made their mark on the neighborhood by designing a number of the homes in the area as well as Druid Hills High School, and many buildings on the Emory University campus. Crook and Ivey were influenced by architect Neal Reid whom they worked under before establishing their own firm. Other architects included Philip Shutze, Walter Downing, Thomas Windham, and Arthur Neal Robinson Sr. Druid Hills, planned by America's most famous landscape architect Fredrick Law Olmsted, is a tree-shaded neighborhood of winding streets and small parks. Beginning in 1900, many of Atlanta's wealthiest citizens chose to live in Druid Hills. They hired some of Atlanta's most noted architects to design their homes. The result is an eclectic mix of architectural styles nestled into the curving topography of the neighborhood. The National Register of Historic Places recognizes Druid Hills.  

History of Druid Hills - In 1812, the area now known as Druid Hills was surrendered by the Indians to the government of Georgia. The land was surveyed and sold in lots of 202.5 acres. Residents of Georgia drew for the lots through a lottery. The area now bordered by Ponce de Leon Avenue, Briarcliff Road, North Decatur Road and Lullwater Road was eventually sold to Joel Hurt's Kirkwood Land Company in 1890 for $63,000. It was his idea to develop a community centered around a golf course. Hurt continued to buy acreage, accumulating 1,492 wooded acres and hired Frederick Olmsted to plan and design the community. Joel Hurt sold his property in 1908, for $500,000 to a syndicate headed by Asa G. Candler. Asa Candler had made his fortune from Coca-Cola. The headline in the Atlanta Journal on May 19, 1908 read "DRUID HILLS, JOEL HURT PROPERY, SOLD FOR A COOL HALF MILLION; LARGEST SALE EVER RECORDED HERE." On June 25, 1908, the area officially became known as "Druid Hills" by the DeKalb County Superior Court through a charter that was granted to Asa Candler's corporation.
