Kirkwood Historic District
Kirkwood Historic District, Historic district in east Atlanta, United States.
The Kirkwood Historic District spans 850 acres with 1788 buildings featuring Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, and Classical Revival architectural styles from 1870 to 1940.
Originally settled in 1827 by James H. Kirkpatrick, the area transformed from a plantation estate into a suburban development connected to Atlanta by streetcar service.
The annual Kirkwood Spring Fling festival brings together residents and visitors for music performances, art exhibitions, food vendors, and children activities.
The district extends between Memorial Drive, Montgomery Street, Hosea Williams Drive, Rogers Street, the CSX Railroad tracks, and Atlanta city boundaries.
Former Kirkwood School, designed by architects Bruce, Everett, and Hayes in 1906, now functions as residential loft apartments following renovation.
