Ansley Above The Park is located in the heart of Midtown (at the intersection of Piedmont Avenue and 13th Street) and is adjacent to Piedmont Park. Colony Square, with restaurants, shops, services, and professional offices is also just one block away, and the location is also convenient to the intersection at 10th and Piedmont (called Atlanta's hippest by Creative Loafing). Some of the city's finest shops and restaurants are located within a radius of a few blocks, and the location is also convenient to the Woodruff Arts Center, the High Museum, the Fox Theatre, as well as other major cultural venues and nightclubs. It is also near the Arts Center and Midtown MARTA rail stations. This major multi-use development will include residential, retail, office and hotel components. You also have easy access to Atlantic Station -- located just across I-75/85 at 17th Street -- which also provides a wide variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment options.
Midtown is a very dynamic community with civic-minded residents with an active lifestyle. Midtown benefits from a strong and effective neighborhood association and business association. The Midtown Alliance spends millions of dollars to provide additional community services and to improve infrastructure. Two of the organization's initiatives are Midtown Blue (a full-time, private police force staffed by a rotating team of off-duty police officers) and Midtown Green (an environmental maintenance crew that scours the area to eliminate debris and visual clutter).
