Live Life in the Park – Candler Park

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

Just a little south of Ponce de Leon, east of downtown Atlanta but still west of Decatur lies one of Atlanta’s oldest neighborhoods, Candler Park.  Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, life here will remind you of what many neighborhoods have lost – a true sense of community.  Everything you want is nearby.  The Little Five Points and Edgewood business and retail districts to all kinds of recreation venues.  There is even a MARTA station nearby.  That’s how you make and keep a community, when the residents lives revolve around their immediate area it breeds familiarity.  People here know their neighbors and they socialize together.

Much of the socializing takes place at Candler Park itself.  With a golf course, playground, pool, tennis courts and sports fields there is plenty to do for adults and kids.  There are even movies shown in the park throughout the summer.

Of course no neighborhood will be able to fulfill every need.  When the residents require that which isn’t a part of the Candler Park area, anything else that is needed is only minutes away!  Emory University, City of Decatur, Downtown Atlanta, the Midtown arts venues, Virginia-Highlands and the interstate to provide easy access to the rest of the metro area.

Candler Park. A lovely neighborhood of  parks, a fun business district and 1920′s Craftsman bungalow homes, located within the perimeter.
