Dunwoody Breaks Ground on New Georgetown Park

Georgetown Park is located on a 16-acre parcel of land between Chamblee Dunwoody and Shallowford roads.


City officials held a celebratory groundbreaking ceremony to mark the beginning of construction activities on Georgetown Park.

The city’s newest park since its incorporation in 2008, Georgetown Park is located on the 16-acre parcel of land between Chamblee Dunwoody Road and North Shallowford Road.

Georgetown Park will include a central park square, an expansive lawn featuring an event pavilion and a passive play area perfect for family picnics and casual outdoor activities. The square will also house a pair of bocce courts and a custom art installation.

A children’s playground with two separate play structures intended for children between three and twelve years of age will be created near the Chamblee Dunwoody Road entrance of the 16-acre site.

Once complete, the new park will be available for community-wide use and serve as the anchor public park space portion of the planned Project Renaissance redevelopment.

A phase of the planned 3.3 mile long multi-use Brook Run Trail, currently under construction in Brook Run Park, will run through Georgetown Park and link in future phases to Brook Run Park; creating increased connectivity between City parks, neighborhoods and area businesses.

The grand opening of the new Georgetown Park is expected to occur later this year.
