Annual Tour of Homes Rich With History
March 17, 2010
Source: Community Partnership Update/April 2010
 Join your neighbors for the annual Druid Hills Home and Garden Tour & Artist Market from April 16 to 18. This year's tour of homes will feature residences exclusively on one of the Clifton Community's legendary tree-lined streets, Oakdale Road.
What do U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt, Atlanta architect Walter Dowling, cookbook author Henrietta Stanley Dull and Chicago gangster Al Capone have in common? They all share connections to Oakdale Road. Oakdale is also no stranger to the movies -- from "Driving Miss Daisy" to "Stroke of Genius," this street can sometimes appear like a Hollywood movie set.
This year, come celebrate this landmark event and discover why the U.S. Department of the Interior said Druid Hills is "significant as the finest example of late 19th and early 20th century comprehensive planning and development in the Atlanta area, and one of the finest period suburbs in the Southeast."
