Ansley Park is one of the most coveted neighbrhoods in Atlanta.  Located just north of Midtown at 15th Street and west of Piedmont Park, lies an oasis filled with large, wooded parks, flower lined yards, and a mix of lovely historic and new modern homes.  You will find wide, winding streets over rolling hills that set the neighborhood apart as a refuge from the hustle and bustle of eachtree Street.  

In 1905 Edwin P. Ansley began construction of this ambitious project that has survived and flourished through its prime in the 1920's to its present day maturity.  Ansley Park was not spared from the housing shortage during World War II when the bungalows and mansions were transformed into rooming houses.  The resurgence began in the 1960s and continues today as Ansley Park maintains an ever changing nature while mainging a spot on the National Register of Historic Places.  

Many families have lived in Ansley Park for generations, passing down a deep civic mindedness and sense of community.  With a desire to fight city encroachment and maintain its parks and small town-feel, the residents formed the Ansley Park Civic Association hich acts as the information center for the neighborhood.  The active group publishes a quarterly newsletter and organizes holiday events to promote the sense of community that is so evident to anyone visiting or passing through.  


                                 

Having such an eclectic collection of homes from mansions to condominiums to bungalows to villas only adds to the charm and ynamic of the neighborhood.  Many times I have forgone a run n Piedmont Park for the rolling hills, shady sidewalks and "tour of homes" in Ansley Park.  

       

Whether you are new to Atlanta or have lived here all your life, this neighborhood is definitely worth a visit!    

Stay at the Ansley Inn in the heart of the neighborhood.
