City Green at City Springs

Park Features

Set in the heart of Sandy Springs' downtown district, City Green is a four-acre public park that functions as a community gathering space. This green space in City Springs is where locals connect, unwind, and celebrate throughout the year.

The park centers around a spacious open lawn area that's ideal for spreading out a picnic blanket, tossing a frisbee, or simply lounging on the grass with a good book. Around the perimeter, you can find shaded areas with plenty of seating - ideal for those hot Georgia days when you need a break from the sun.

The park is well-maintained with clean grounds, creating a peaceful atmosphere suitable for both community gatherings and quiet personal time.

Water Features

True to its Sandy Springs namesake, the park incorporates beautiful water elements throughout its design. Kids (and kids at heart) love the interactive fountain that doubles as a popular splash pad during Georgia's warmer months - which, let's be honest, is most of the year!

Wide, pedestrian-friendly paths wind through the park, great for a leisurely afternoon stroll. The water wall creates a soothing background soundtrack to your visit, while various fountains scattered throughout add both visual interest and a refreshing feel to the atmosphere.

Amenities

City Green offers several amenities for a comfortable visit. Covered picnic tables are strategically placed around the grounds, making it easy to enjoy an alfresco meal or gather with friends.

No need to cut your visit short - clean restrooms are readily available. If you're looking to relax, grab one of the swings and gently rock while people-watching or chatting with a friend.

Hungry but didn't pack a lunch? No problem. The park is surrounded by restaurants within easy walking distance. And don't stress about parking - there's underground parking available with a convenient deck right next to the park.

Events and Entertainment

The park's covered outdoor stage makes City Green a popular outdoor venue in Sandy Springs. Throughout the year, you'll find concerts, performances, and community events bringing this space to life.

Don't miss the weekly farmers market featuring local arts and food vendors. The free summer concerts on Friday nights are a local favorite - nothing beats spreading a blanket on the lawn while enjoying live music under the stars.

Winter brings its own magic with ice skating and holiday light displays that give the park a festive glow. For the grown-ups, Wine Down Thursdays offer an ideal way to ease into the weekend with a glass of wine enjoyed on the lawn.

Safety is clearly a priority here, with security personnel visible during events ensuring everyone can relax and enjoy themselves.

Arts and Culture

As part of the larger City Springs complex, City Green connects seamlessly with the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center and City Hall, creating a civic and cultural hub for the community.

The park doubles as an outdoor gallery, hosting rotating sculpture exhibitions through an annual public art program in partnership with Art Sandy Springs. The thoughtfully placed artwork throughout the grounds adds an extra dimension to your visit, making each walk through the park a new experience.

Playground and Recreation

Families with little ones appreciate the well-designed playground where kids can burn off energy in a safe environment. During summer, the splash pad becomes the center of attention as children cool off while having a blast in the water.

The open design makes City Green particularly accommodating for families and pet owners, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy themselves. If you're 5 or 95, there's something here that speaks to visitors of all ages.
