In the 1830s it housed travelers rest ing from a journey on the wagon trail. Federal troops used it as a landmark as they descended on Atlanta during the Civil War. The home provided for Civ il War refugees and comfort for those hit hardest by the Great Depression. At one time it was part of a 600-acre farm, but now the house on Peachtree Street in Brookhaven is all that’s left. Descendants of the Goodwin family still own the house. They open its doors to the public the third Sunday of every month.

Bynum Jr. Pedestrian Bridge connects the Peachtree Park neighborhood to Lenox Square via a walkway across Ga. 400. The 223-foot-long bridge was ded icated in 1999. There are two entrances to the foot path that lead to the bridge on the south side of Ga. 400 — one from Mar tina Drive and another in the sharp turn where East Paces Ferry Road now feeds into Peachtree Drive. A yellow and red floral display offsets well-maintained green grass and mature trees along the path. Curving, wrought-iron banisters pro tect raised flower and planting beds, and the bridge gives pedestrians a view of Buckhead’s towering skyscrapers.
