The flow of the The Olmsted Linear Park allows students to move from Shady Side Park to Oak Grove Park without disruption from heavily traveled Ponce de Leon Ave. The Olmsted Linear Park Alliance maintains the restoration and preservation of the series of linear parks designed by Frederick Law Olmstead run from Moreland Ave. to the 22 acre Deepdene Park. In the late 1800s, the parks were designed to attract wealthy prospective home owners and to blend with public trolley traffic. (Jenni Girtman / Atlanta Event Photography)
