New Highland Park

New Highland Park is a small 0.41 acre park at the northeast corner of North Highland Avenue and St. Charles Place in the historic Atkins Park neighborhood of Atlanta, often considered a part of the larger Virginia Highland neighborhood.

The park was originally the site of two adjacent lots, 1076 and 1082 St. Charles Place.

In 1952 the house was demolished and the Highland Branch of the Atlanta Public Library was built on the two lots.

In December 2008 the Virginia Highland Civic Association bought the land.

However, there are plans to develop it into an eco-friendly park and rain garden.
