Parks & Nature

Nice city park, favorite playground for my young kinfolk. Also, ask me about Sandy Creek (more nature-oriented, nice trail) and bunches of other possibilities nearby.

It's a beautiful and relaxing place. There's another nice quad just to the south. You can come back to downtown from there by going around the Law School and back by a pleasant pedestrian walkway that goes by a very nice fountain.

Interesting story behind it. This is probably the reason they put the state's engineering school in Atlanta.
