Lenox Boardwalk

Lenox Boardwalk is Section I of the Lenox Road Complete Safe Street project. It introduces a 10′-12′ multiuse trail along Lenox Road between the Lenox MARTA Station (on East Paces Ferry Road) and Peachtree Road (SR 141).

This wide, elevated boardwalk enhances the visual character of the corridor while creating a safer, more direct connection between the Lenox MARTA station, Lenox Square and the surrounding retail, hospitality and business community.

Beyond the trail itself, Section I improves pedestrian safety along one of Buckhead’s busiest commercial stretches and sets the design standard — wide paths, enhanced lighting and landscaping, distinctive materials — for the two sections that follow.

Lenox Road is transforming into one of Buckhead’s most walkable, connected corridors. The Lenox Road Complete Safe Street project spans 1.25 miles from the Lenox MARTA Station to Piedmont Road, reimagining a heavily trafficked stretch of roadway as a safer, more accessible route for pedestrians, cyclists and the businesses that line it.

The project fulfills the recommendations of the Lenox Road Scoping Study, part of the 2017 Buckhead REdeFINED master plan. It is organized into three sections, delivered through a partnership between Buckhead CID, the City of Atlanta, the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) and MARTA, with engineering support from Pond & Company and Kimley-Horn.
