Why you should go…

Midtown's 200-acre green heart frames the classic Atlanta postcard: skyscrapers rising behind Lake Clara Meer and its stone boathouse. Redesigned by the Olmsted Brothers in the early 1900s, the park hosts the Atlanta Jazz Festival, the Dogwood Festival, and a Saturday Green Market in season. Locals run the loops, picnic in the meadows, and turn dogs loose at the popular dog park, with the BeltLine and Atlanta Botanical Garden sitting right at the park's edges.
