Reynoldstown

Sandwiched between Inman Park, Edgewood and Cabbagetown, this former working-class community is increasingly popular with first-time homebuyers, artists, students and single professionals. And with close proximity to the Beltline and bohemian hotspots along Carroll Street, who can blame them? 

 Likely named for former slaves Madison and Sarah Reynolds, the neighborhood was founded by a group of freed slaves who worked for the railroad. Their brave legacy is celebrated every year at the Wheelbarrow Festival. Reynoldstown remained a tight-knit, Black-owned community until the railroad started to decline in the 1990s. The former train tracks are now host to technicolor murals and the historic shotgun houses are in high demand.

 Bring your pup to dog-friendly Park Grounds for some coffee and fetch, or visit the Edgewood Retail District, host to boutique shops and big-box stores alike. With the Memorial corridor booming and the upcoming Trolley Trail on the way, Reynoldstown’s once-dusty warehouses are hot commodities. Just check out the seven-acre Stein Steel site, currently being reimagined as a mixed-use paradise full of restaurants, condos and townhomes with skyline views.
