Around Hammond Park
The Hammond Park area is hilly in comparison to other communities. Single-family homes are prevalent in this area, many of which were built over the mid-20th century in a quaint cottage style. Many of the area’s commercial destinations are accessible from the neighborhood’s northern border, Cleveland Avenue.
In this quaint community, all homes are generally budget-friendly and welcoming for first-time buyers. Investors keep an eye on the market’s residential inventory, as they know Hammond Park is small in size but big in value with its upcoming redevelopment plans.
Hammond Park has a few humble eateries that locals frequent for a filling meal of Southern classics. Soul food lovers show up in crowds at Walter’s Soul Food restaurant for oxtail entrees, mac & cheese servings, cornbread, and tasty turkey wings. Be sure to wash it all down with their freshly made lemonade. Residents might also drive further west down Cleveland Avenue to find no-frills joints specializing in seafood and wings.
In this relatively small area, residents maintain a spirit of community by getting to know their neighbors and extending warm welcomes to visitors. You will see children play throughout the neighborhood and old friends chatting at local restaurants. Locals hurry about at nearby shopping centers before returning home to tranquil residential streets.
Hammond Park is not known for its nightlife, so residents have to travel toward the airport or closer to downtown when they want a night out. You never know who you might meet at the pubs and sports bars around Virginia Avenue, which entertain locals and travelers alike. However, many community members are content to spend a night in with pizza and a movie.
Locals wander over to Cofield Park and West Bolling Park where there is a small playground area, basketball courts, lots of greenspace, and nature trails. A short drive east of Hammond Park, Brown's Mill Golf Course is a great place to spend an afternoon on the greens.
Residents are grateful for the short commute to Atlanta’s rapid freeway I-75/I-85. Furthermore, a few more minutes in your travels will lead you to entry points to I-285, I-20, and several state roads. Hammond Park locals are minutes away from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Most homeowners depend on their cars to get around, as walkability isn’t great and taxis/ride-shares aren’t as common.
