Candler Park

Candler Park

Candler Park is a 55 acre (223,000 m²) city park located at 585 Candler Park Drive, NE, in Atlanta, Georgia, named after Asa Griggs Candler who donated this land to the city in 1922. The park features a 9 hole golf course, a swimming pool, a football/soccer field, a basketball court, tennis courts, and a playground.

Candler Park is also the name of the neighborhood surrounding the park. It is entirely in the DeKalb County side of the city, bordering Lake Claire, Inman Park, and Druid Hills. The Candler Park Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 8, 1983, with a boundary increase on March 17, 2005. It includes portions of Lake Claire.

The neighborhood is home to the original location of one of Atlanta's most popular brunch spots, The Flying Biscuit.
