Neighborhood History

Edwin P. Ansley, real estate developer, began selling lots in 1905. He designed expansive curvilinear streets to accommodate the then-new automobile. Ansley Park Historic District includes homes built between 1904 and 1913 on the north side of downtown Atlanta. It is west of Piedmont Park, between Piedmont Avenue and Peachtree Street. The Georgia governor’s mansion remained in Ansley Park for decades. New homes contributed to the prestigious neighborhood until the 1930s.

Ansley Park remained a popular subdivision even as suburban communities drew residents away from Downtown. Since the 1960s, the efforts of the Ansley Park Civic Association have sustained a harmonious vision of this intown oasis.

Neighborhood Schools

Schools Serving Ansley Park Homes: Students are served by the Atlanta Public Schools at Morningside Elementary School, Inman Middle School, and Henry W. Grady High School. Several colleges and universities are in the vicinity.
