History
Possibly Atlanta most famous park, we've all visited at least once. Whether it's the Dogwood Festival, Music Midtown or the finish-line of the Peachtree Road Race...these are just some of the hundreds of reason to visit Piedmont Park. Today I'm telling you about the early history of the land, two important expositions, as well history that will make you notice and appreciate the park in a new way.
