Peachtree Hills Park at 308 Peachtree Hills Avenue NE encompasses 7.2 acres in Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood, featuring a recreation center building that hosts after-school programs and indoor basketball. The facility serves as home to Centers of Hope after-school program and Atlanta Teen Leaders, providing structured youth activities with praised staff including Coach O and Ms. Taylor who offer tutoring help and enrichment activities. While the recreation building provides essential community services, the limited indoor facilities and focus on outdoor park amenities distinguish this as primarily a neighborhood park with a program building rather than a comprehensive recreation center.
The recreation center building successfully delivers quality after-school programming with staff receiving exceptional praise from parents for creating engaging experiences combining activities with academic support. However, facility limitations become apparent through sparse details about indoor amenities beyond the gymnasium, suggesting a basic community building within a larger park context. The outdoor facilities including three lighted tennis courts, baseball field with lights and batting cage, playground for ages 2-12, and quarter-mile gravel walking path serve as the primary recreational features, with the building functioning more as program space than full-service recreation destination.
