Ansley Park

Ansley Park

Ansley Park is an intown neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia, located just east of Midtown and west of Piedmont Park. It was developed in 1905-1908 as the first Atlanta suburban neighborhood designed for automobiles, featuring wide, winding roads rather than the grid pattern typical of older streetcar suburbs. Streets were planned like parkways with extensive landscaping, while Winn Park and McClatchey Park are themselves long and narrow, extending deep into the neighborhood. Ansley Golf Club borders the district. The neighborhood was largely completed by 1930 and covers 275 acres. It has been designated a Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places. To the immediate east of the golf course is the Eastside Trail interim hiking trail, part of the BeltLine ring of parks and trails around the central city. This neighborhood is known for its estates in the heart of the city!
