What it is
Historic Fourth Ward Park is a 17-acre green space in Old Fourth Ward with connections to the BeltLine Eastside Trail. The BeltLine says it won design awards for reclaiming 17 underutilized acres. The centerpiece is a 2-acre lake that doubles as a stormwater retention basin.
What to do
Families can use the playground equipment, which is available year-round, and a shade structure stands near it. The park also has large meadows for relaxing and an amphitheater for festivals and other gatherings. A kids’ splash pad is listed as open 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. from May 1 through October 1, so it is closed for the season right now. The Eastside Trail connection makes the park an easy stop on a longer walk or ride.
Before you go
The BeltLine lists park entry points at North Avenue, Morgan Street, Dallas Street, Rankin Street, Angier Avenue and Ralph McGill Boulevard. Space can be reserved through iParcs, and large groups or special activities may need an event permit. Maintenance issues can be reported to (404) 546-0311 or at ATL311.com.
