Inman Park-Moreland Historic District (Boundary Increase)

Inman Park-Moreland is a neighborhood of houses, apartment buildings, shops, two churches and two schools east of downtown Atlanta. It grew from the 1880s, beginning in the south on the site of Moreland Park, a summer resort developed by Major Asbury F. Moreland, and later spread north through subdivisions such as Copenhill, platted in 1889. Most houses are one- and two-story wood-frame buildings in Victorian, Colonial Revival and Craftsman styles, while brick apartment buildings line Seminole and North Highland Avenues. The Little Five Points commercial area includes two Art Deco theaters. Additional documentation extended the period of significance to 1952, added 1930s and 1940s bungalows and commercial buildings on Euclid Avenue, and reclassified several buildings after rehabilitation. The district is recognized for its architecture, community planning, commerce and education, and for links to Moreland and Judge H.E.W. Palmer. Highway and parkway clearing in the later 20th century isolated it from neighboring Inman Park.
