Castleberry Hill is a neighborhood in
Atlanta, Georgia, adjacent to and southwest of Downtown Atlanta. It is a federally recognized historic district since 1985 and became a City of Atlanta Landmark District in 2006.[2]
History
The area in the city limits of Atlanta known today as Castleberry Hill was originally part of the renegade
1996 Olympics saw another influx of development.[7] By the early 21st century, however, Castleberry Hill began another renaissance with major motion pictures and TV series such as Walking Dead' being filmed in the area; the now well-known Castleberry Hill Art Stroll, which is held on the second Friday of each month, has become yet another popular event in this area.[8] Castleberry Hill is noted for having the largest concentration of black owned businesses in the nation.[9]
