22 Aug In-Town Atlanta Real Estate: Surround Yourself in the Old South Living in the New South
One of the biggest benefits of in-town Atlanta real estate it its new south location with old south living. While you are in the heart of the city for jobs and public transportation, you also enjoy the amenities of the old south. It’s the perfect combination for gracious living.
Visit the Atlanta Botanical Garden on Piedmont Avenue in the midtown area. Stroll through the gardens and soak of the sights and scents of seasonal blooms. You’ll feel a million miles away from city living as you appreciate these fabulous southern gardens. They also offer scheduled cuisine, wine tastings, art exhibits and more.
Another fine place to dine in the midtown area is Mary Mac’s, established in 1945. Celebrities, world travelers and locals all feel at home in this sensational southern tea house and dining establishment. ABC’s “The Chew” visited Mary Mac’s to see how the best southern cuisine is prepared. Nibble on fried okra, ask for a complimentary cup of Pot Likker and sip a refreshing mint julep martini.
Get familiar with some southern history at the Atlanta History Center on West Paces Ferry Road in Buckhead. Appreciate 33 acres with two historical houses on the premises. Check out annual festivals such as the Sheep to Shawl and more. The Atlanta History Center also has cultural events including summer camps and lecture series from award-winning authors.
Go downtown to visit the Centennial Olympic Park on Park Avenue. The amazing fountain of rings is a recognized landmark in Georgia. Attend one of their many events and make sure to go to Googie Burger for their famed burgers, fries, hotdogs and milkshakes. While you are downtown, experience the new south during a CNN Studio tour.
With cultural attractions, parks, restaurants and nightclubs, in-town Atlanta real estate put you in the heart of everything with an old south feel all around you.
