Record swath of storied Buckhead land acquired for new Atlanta park | Urbanize Atlanta

Greenspace advocates of Atlanta—it’s time to rejoice!

A scenic, creekside, 30-acre slice of Buckhead that neighbors have feared could be subdivided and redeveloped into palatial homes will instead be preserved as a new City of Atlanta park, officials tell Urbanize Atlanta.

The Conservation Fund’s $13.5 million acquisition of the estate formerly owned by the late and beloved philanthropist, photographer, and arts community supporter Lucinda Bunnen officially closed Tuesday.
