One of the best things about Kirkwood Park is its location. Kirkwood Park is just 5 miles from downtown Atlanta. We’re also surrounded by fun areas filled with shopping and restaurant that include downtown Decatur, Little 5 Points, Candler Park, East Atlanta, and Virginia-Highland.

Kirkwood Park is also convenient to the airport; to the universities of Emory, Georgia State and Georgia Tech; and to the interstate highways I-20 and I-75/I-85 (the Downtown Connector). Best of all, we’re on the MARTA east rail line, with a station right here in Kirkwood (East Lake Station).

The area also features plentiful recreation amenities:

Parks: Bessie Branham Park and Coan Park. Bessie Branham Park was recently renovated with new tennis/basketball courts, a ball field, and playground as well as a $2 million recreational center that opened in 1998. The recreation center has a gym, workout equipment, and a state-of-the-art computer center with classes that are free to Atlanta residents.

Charlie Yates Public Golf Course (with driving range) in East Lake (less than one mile from Kirkwood) offers reduced greens fees to residents of the 30317 area.

A new, state-of-the-art YMCA.

Located on the PATH, a multi-use urban trail that is enormously popular with local cyclists, runners, walkers, and roller bladers.
