Just south of downtown Newnan is the cities' newest park! Having just opened to the public in the Spring of 2008, Greenville Street Par is fast becoming one of Newnan's most popular urban destinations.

And no wonder. It's an easy walk from the square, or there is plenty of parking along Greenville Street. The park is designed to accommodate strollers and wheelchairs.

The highlight of the park is the open air amphitheatre that doubles as a grassy play surface. There is a small fountain that uses only recycled water in the middle of a large outdoor eating area with plenty of tables and beautiful landscaping.

There are quiet walkways that feature both plantings and sculptures, and the park adjoins First Avenue Park to the West if you would like to take a longer jaunt.

One of the many restaurants in the downtown area will gladly pack your meal to go so you can take advantage of the facilities at the park. It will make your lunch break more interesting and relaxing in a setting that's a pleasant getaway from crowded dining rooms.

The park can be booked in advance for special events. For information on booking events you can contact the City of Newnan Community Development Department at 770-253-2682
