About Rawson-Washington Park

Recreational Facilities

Rawson-Washington Park has a nice variety of options if you're looking to get active. The tennis courts are ready whenever you feel like hitting some balls or challenging a friend to a match.

If you prefer a more relaxed pace, the walking trails wind through the grounds, excellent for a morning jog or an evening stroll to clear your head. Sports enthusiasts will appreciate the basketball courts and baseball field where pickup games regularly break out on nice days.

Community Space

This park really functions as the neighborhood's outdoor living room. The open grassy areas give you plenty of space to throw a frisbee, have an impromptu picnic, or just lounge with a good book on a sunny afternoon.

The designated picnic area is great for when you want to enjoy lunch outside or celebrate a birthday with friends. It's one of those places where you might come alone but end up chatting with neighbors or joining in a community event that's happening.

Playground

Kids have their own space at Rawson-Washington Park with a playground area that gives the little ones a chance to burn off energy. Worth noting that the equipment and grounds could use some TLC in certain spots, but it still provides a functional play space for children in the neighborhood.

Neighborhood Setting

Tucked at the corner of Kelly Street and Connally Street in Atlanta, this modest neighborhood park creates a welcome patch of green in the urban landscape. It's not huge, but that's part of its charm - it feels like a genuine extension of the surrounding community.
