About Boulevard Crossing Park in Atlanta
Boulevard Crossing Park is a 25-acre green space located in southeast Atlanta, Georgia. Situated at the intersection of Boulevard and Englewood Avenue, the park is part of the larger Atlanta BeltLine project, which aims to transform the city's former railway corridors into a network of public parks, multi-use trails, and transit.
The park's development has been planned in phases, with the first phase completed in 2011. This initial phase included the creation of two multi-use activity fields, covering approximately five acres of the total park area. These fields have since been used for various recreational activities and community events.
The park's topography is notable, featuring over 100 feet of elevation change across the site. This dramatic landscape has been incorporated into the park's design, with plans to sculpt the terrain to enhance the sense of drama and discovery for visitors. The park's design also aims to capture, store, and clean stormwater, integrating sustainable practices into its layout.
Future development plans for Boulevard Crossing Park include the creation of additional recreational spaces and amenities. The park is designed to serve as a vital community asset, providing green space in an area of Atlanta that has historically lacked such resources. It is intended to offer a range of activities for visitors of all ages, from passive recreation to more active pursuits.
As part of the Atlanta BeltLine project, Boulevard Crossing Park is expected to connect directly to the future Southside Trail, enhancing accessibility and integrating it into the larger network of parks and trails throughout the city.
