Winnona Park Historic District, Historic residential district in Decatur, Georgia.
Winnona Park Historic District is a residential neighborhood in Decatur featuring early 20th-century homes on tree-covered streets. The buildings show different suburban architectural styles developed during the 1920s and after.
The area was farmland owned by the Winn family during the 1800s until George Bucher Scott developed a residential plan in 1923. This transformation created one of the area's first planned neighborhoods.
The name comes from a local family, and that legacy shapes how residents view their neighborhood. The elementary school that opened here in 1923 remains an important gathering point where many generations have gone to class.
The neighborhood sits between College Avenue and Columbia Drive with easy access to downtown Decatur. Visitors can walk through the streets easily and experience the area as a quiet residential community.
The Avary-Fulton House was built in 1868 and is the oldest home still standing in Decatur. It predates the planned neighborhood and offers a glimpse into the area's early settlement.
