The Atlanta BeltLine has already increased the footprint of Atlanta’s greenspace significantly with some of the most sustainable and magnificent parks in the city. Each new park removed industrial contaminants from the ground and created beautiful new public spaces for the community to enjoy. Each park was achieved through partnerships with the public and private sectors and strong community involvement and support.

Boulevard Crossing Park Phase I opened in Chosewood Park in fall 2011. Blighted industrial land has been transformed into five acres of glorious greenspace and multi-use activity fields. Built as sustainably as possible, Boulevard Crossing even features kudzu-eating goats! Learn more

D.H. Stanton

Check out the first energy-cost neutral park in the City of Atlanta! Photovoltaic solar panels provide revenue-generating energy, while also serving as a shade structure for park visitors. The park serves as a shining example of the power of a collaborative effort within the community to turn a former landfill site into greenspace for all to enjoy. Learn more

Gordon White Park

With its grand opening in 2008, Gordon White Park became the Atlanta BeltLine’s first official park. This triangle plot of land in a five-star intersection used to be an empty, grassy lot. The Atlanta BeltLine revived the park into an open greenspace with winding pathways, landscaped garden beds, and walls and benches for relaxing and taking in the sunshine. Learn more

Historic Fourth Ward Park

Historic Fourth Ward Park is perhaps the most visible sign for most Atlantans of the transformative nature of the Atlanta BeltLine. Dedicated in 2011, Historic Fourth Ward Park is a glistening oasis where once stood little more than cracked asphalt, trash-strewn fields, and an empty promise of something more. Learn more

Opened in spring 2011, it has quickly become a hot gathering spot for skaters, athletes and families alike. Learn more
