“IT’S THE BEST PLACE I’VE SEEN,” HE SAID , “ : . *"******‘* MM * Ml "* lßM, **"'* M "" l " J ■ —» ——_J A few days after the double-page announcement was made last week in The Georgian’s Saturday Magazine, a gentleman who recently moved to Atlanta from New York looked things over in Atkins Park. Then he picked out a lot and went to a dealer in high-class realty and said he wanted to buy it. And he said: “It’s the best place I’ve seen.” Atkins Park is just different from anything else offered to the builders of hand some residences in a restricted locality. It was developed by Mr. E. W. Grove, the owner of the twenty-seven acres comprising Atkins Park, regardless of expense. He realized there were people in Atlanta who wanted exclusiveness and who were will ing to pay for it. Atkins Park is not cheap property, nor is it meant for the building of cheap resi dences. It is the highest class residence property in every way. The property is bounded by Ponce DeLeon, Moreland and Highland avenues and is reached by the car lines on these streets, although no trolley cars pass in front of the lots. The property is opposite the entrance to Druid Hills—you can tell it by the handsome and massive stone gateways marking the entrances to the “places” upon which the residences are to face. The streets are paved, cement sidewalks are down, together with sewers and water, and trees and shrubbery from the famous Biltmore nurseries has been set out. Atkins Park couldn’t have been developed on any higher plan. It is in one of the finest sections of Atlanta, high above the busy city and free from noise, dust, dirt and smoke. Trolley cars reach it, but do not enter. The property may be traversed one way through the “places” and in the other direction by cement side walks, so that it isn’t necessary to go to Moreland or Highland avenues. No stores or public buildings will ever be erected in Atkins Park, and no residence will be built which other property owners need feel badly about. They will all be high-class and must conform to restrictions regarding cost. It’s a nice automobile ride to Atkins Park out Ponce DeLeon avenue. Ride out and look it over.
