Perkerson Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Perkerson Park is a 50-acre park in the Capitol View/Sylvan Hills neighborhoods, and it is the most important park in NPU-X.
Originally, the park was the family farm of the Perkerson family. In the 1950s, they donated their land to the City of Atlanta, and the land was turned into a park.
Perkerson Park is both an active and a passive park. Amenities include a relatively new playground, a recreation center, tennis courts, basketball coutrs, ballfields, and a pavillion. However, it also has open fields, a sizeable creek, and a small tract of woods. This area of the park is a good area to relax and escape from the activity of the rest of the park.
