Get Ready to Drop In!
Skateboarders of every level can challenge themselves in Atlanta’s first public skatepark. It was designed with input from the local skateboard community and received funding from the foundation of the legendary Tony Hawk, who put on a showcase at the grand opening.
There’s Plenty of Non-Skating Fun Too
A dynamic playground and large multi-use athletic field provide plenty of entertainment for those who don’t wish to partake in skateboarding. Other features include benches, public restrooms, and nighttime lighting.
Honoring a Legacy
Historic Fourth Ward Skatepark was renamed in 2024 to honor Thomas F. Taylor, a legendary skateboarder, entrepreneur, and advocate of Atlanta's skating community. Taylor oversaw many popular do-it-yourself skateparks in the city, including one formerly at this site.
