Allen Road Park to be Expanded

Apr 10, 2020 | News

In February, the Sandy Springs City Council agreed to purchase adjoining properties on Allen Road for the expansion of Allen Road Park. This popular three acre park, with a walking trail and playing fields near l-285 and Lake Forest Drive, will grow by 1.5 acres. The Sandy Springs Conservancy has been building support for this park expansion with property owners and the City for a number of years, and we are excited to be involved in making the park even better.
