North Buckhead

This booklet has been prepared for new residents of North Buckhead. So what is North Buckhead? North Buckhead is one of the largest neighborhoods in the City of Atlanta and is located entirely within Fulton County. It is urbanized in the south, including many upscale business high-rises and luxurious condominium towers as well as premier retail shopping areas. To the north, North Buckhead is made up of single family homes and low-rise condominiums. The area is generally heavily wooded, with many creeks and rolling hills. Altogether, North Buckhead includes about 3500 homes, with roughly equal numbers of detached single-family homes and condominiums. North Buckhead includes Phipps Plaza, the GA-400 tollgates, over 100 street intersections, Tower Place, the Buckhead Marta Station, Piedmont Center, more than 40 restaurants, the Blue Heron Nature Preserve (almost 20 acres), four churches, the tallest building in Buckhead (Park Avenue), Nancy Creek, many beautiful homes and condominiums and much more.

North Buckhead Civic Association (NBCA) The North Buckhead Civic Association, or NBCA, was established in 1972. It is a voluntary, non-profit neighborhood organization. The boundaries of North Buckhead (listed above) are recognized by the Department of Planning of the City of Atlanta.

According to its bylaws, the North Buckhead Civic Association is a Georgia corporation:

“…operated to promote the common good and general welfare of the residents of the North Buckhead area, for the mutual enjoyment and benefit of its residents, preservation of quality of life, and fostering its spirit of community and to provide a forum for the full and free discussion of all matters of interest to the residents of North Buckhead.”

While anyone can join NBCA, full membership with rights to vote in elections and hold office is available only to households within North Buckhead’s boundaries. NBCA’s complete Bylaws are on-line at www.nbca.org/bylaws.htm.

NBCA Services to North Buckhead Residents

The main services NBCA provides to the neighborhood are:

Beautification Committee

North Buckhead has one small park, North Buckhead Park, at the intersection of Phipps Boulevard and Wieuca Road. The park has a stone monument and is the gateway to single-family residential North Buckhead.

We are proud of our park. The main task of our Beautification Committee is keeping our park spectacularly beautiful. NBCA employs a yard service to maintain the park, but it depends on neighborhood volunteers to do plantings and make improvements. Park “work days” occur in the spring and fall and are announced by e-mail and in our newsletters. Rita is Chair of the Beautification Committee. She can be reached at (404) 237-5878 or [email protected].

Neighborhood Planning Unit–B While the North Buckhead Civic Association (NBCA) is a private non-profit corporation and not part of the government, NBCA is a member of Atlanta’s “grass roots” representative system called the Neighborhood Planning Unit system which is chartered by City of Atlanta ordinances. There are 24 NPUs in the city. The NPU units are charged with making the public aware of important proposed legislation. They also provide recommendations to the City based on citizen input on a variety of topics including land use (including changes to the Comprehensive Development Plan as well as re-zoning, subdivisions, variances and special use permits), liquor licenses, transportation planning and other issues of public concern. Our NPU is NPU-B, which is made up of 12 Buckhead neighborhoods shown in the map below. North Buckhead is by far the largest neighborhood in NPU-B, comprising about 25% of its land area. NBCA’s representative to NPU-B beginning in 2007 is Andrea Bennett. She may be reached at (404) 231-4130 or [email protected].

Neighborhood History and Land Use Trends Parts of the neighborhood were no doubt settled long ago. Buckhead’s first church, Sardis Methodist Church (located on Powers Ferry Road, across Roswell Road from North Buckhead) was established in 1812 (according to a plaque in front of the church). Before the settlers built the church, the area was Indian Territory, the province of the Creeks (Muscogee) Indians. There were several settlements in the area along Nancy Creek. See an interesting article about North Buckhead’s early days at www.nbca.org/Chastain.htm. The oldest buildings remaining today date from about 1900 – an original log cabin remained in use on Arden Way until the middle of 2006. It was reportedly the hunting lodge of one of Georgia’s governors back when North Buckhead was wild country. The first subdivision development in North Buckhead apparently occurred in the 1920s. (See map, below.) Most of the land area in North Buckhead was built out in successive waves of subdivision development, though there are a few large (10-20 acre) parcels left. The recent trend has been redevelopment, by which existing homes are being replaced by larger, more expensive homes. There was an intense battle against the GA-400 highway (which now bisects the neighborhood from north to south) in the 1980s. The North Buckhead Civic Association fought against the road, but, in the end, the road was built. At the same time as GA-400 was constructed, the “Buckhead Loop”, now known as Lenox Road, was extended through the neighborhood and the

residential land south of the Loop became mixed-use, though it is still officially North Buckhead and home to many NBCA members. A few areas in the neighborhood have been preserved as greenspace through the efforts of the City, residents and the North Buckhead Civic Association. These include the City-owned 25-acre “Blue Heron Nature Preserve”, which is managed by the Blue Heron Nature Preserve, Inc. The preserve’s holdings include property between Roswell Road and Rickenbacker Road and the wetlands at the cul-de-sac on Emma Lane. A community garden is located at the “Tunnel Shaft Site”, left. See www.nbca.org/BlueHeron for more information and www.nbca.org/Newsletters/2006-07/page8.html for information about the community garden. Also see map on page 10 of this document which shows the location of the Preserve. (The position of the Community Garden is not identified separately.)
