Why Reynoldstown Appeals
Reynoldstown is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Atlanta. It was founded in the 1860s and 1870s by freedmen working on the Georgia Railroad and named for one of those early settlers, Madison Reynolds. For most of the 20th century it stayed quiet, residential, and largely under the radar. Over the last 15 years that has changed dramatically. The BeltLine Eastside Trail extension cut along the western edge of the neighborhood, Krog Street Market opened on the northwest corner in 2014, and the housing stock has shifted from mostly historic shotgun homes and craftsman bungalows to a mix that now includes substantial new mid-rise apartment buildings, townhome rows, and infill single-family.
Geographically, Reynoldstown sits south of Inman Park, east of Cabbagetown, west of Edgewood, and north of Grant Park. The MARTA Inman Park-Reynoldstown station on the Blue and Green lines is on the eastern edge. The Eastside Trail and Krog Street Market are within a short walk for most blocks. Walk Score is very high, especially on the BeltLine-adjacent streets, and Bike Score is high across the whole neighborhood. The school catchment is Burgess-Peterson Academy, King Middle, and Maynard Jackson High, all APS.
Here's the trade-off. Reynoldstown packages BeltLine adjacency, Krog Street Market on the corner, MARTA rail on the edge, and intown walkability into one address, and there aren't many other neighborhoods in Atlanta that put all four together. The catch is that you're buying into a place that's actively still changing. Renovated historic single-family generally trades $600k to $1.1M, new builds $700k to $1.5M, and townhomes $400k to $700k, but the inventory varies wildly by housing type and the streetscape can shift block by block. If you want one consistent visual character street to street, Inman Park or Cabbagetown will feel more settled. If you want the BeltLine plus Krog plus rail plus walkability in one package, Reynoldstown is the answer.

What Makes Reynoldstown Distinctive
One of Atlanta's oldest neighborhoods
Reynoldstown was founded in the 1860s and 1870s by freedmen who worked on the Georgia Railroad, and it took its name from Madison Reynolds, one of those early settlers. The bones of the original street grid and a meaningful share of the historic shotgun and bungalow stock are still in place, even after 15 years of heavy redevelopment along the BeltLine corridor.
BeltLine Eastside Trail on the western edge
The Atlanta BeltLine Eastside Trail runs along the western edge of Reynoldstown, which means residents step off their block onto a paved path that connects north to Inman Park and Ponce City Market and south toward Memorial Drive and Glenwood Park. The Trail is the single biggest reason the neighborhood's value curve has shifted over the last decade.
Krog Street Market on the corner
Krog Street Market, the food hall and retail destination inside the renovated Atlanta Stove Works building, sits on the northwestern edge of Reynoldstown. Walkable from most of the neighborhood. Food hall, butcher, retail, and a regular calendar of events. One of the original anchors of intown Atlanta's food-hall era.
MARTA Inman Park-Reynoldstown station
The Blue and Green line MARTA station sits on the eastern edge of the neighborhood, giving residents direct rail access to Five Points, downtown, Decatur, and (via transfer) Hartsfield-Jackson Airport without driving. Combined with the BeltLine, this is one of the few intown neighborhoods where a car-light life genuinely works.
Mixed historic and new-build stock
The housing mix now includes smaller historic shotgun homes, 1910s to 1930s craftsman bungalows, post-war cottages, and a substantial layer of newer mid-rise apartments, townhome rows, and infill single-family along the BeltLine and Memorial Drive. Block-by-block character varies more here than in Cabbagetown or Inman Park.
BeltLine plus Krog plus rail plus walkability in one package
Few intown neighborhoods put all four together. Inman Park has the BeltLine and walkability but at a higher price tier and with a lighter MARTA connection. Cabbagetown has Krog and walkability but no rail station on the edge. Reynoldstown is the address that bundles the four amenities, which is a meaningful share of why demand has stayed firm here through every recent market cycle.

Getting Around Reynoldstown
Reynoldstown is one of the few intown neighborhoods where a car-light life genuinely works. The MARTA Blue and Green line station on the eastern edge connects directly to Five Points, downtown, Decatur, and (via transfer at Five Points) Hartsfield-Jackson Airport. The BeltLine Eastside Trail along the western edge handles much of the daily north-south recreational and errand traffic. Daily errands at Krog Street Market and along Memorial Drive are walkable for most of the neighborhood. For trips outside the BeltLine corridor or the rail lines, residents drive, but a meaningful share of weekly life happens on foot, bike, or rail.
Typical commute times
I-20 is accessible via Moreland Avenue or Boulevard, both within about 5 minutes. I-75 and I-85 (the Connector) are reachable via Freedom Parkway, North Avenue, or I-20 west, generally 8 to 12 minutes off-peak.
Frequently asked questions.
What's the median home price in Reynoldstown?
Renovated historic single-family in Reynoldstown generally trades in the $600k to $1.1M range over the last 12 months. Newer infill single-family and substantial new builds run $700k to $1.5M. Townhomes typically run $400k to $700k. Active single-family inventory inside the neighborhood is usually 15 to 30 listings at any given time, with another 10 to 25 townhome and condo listings concentrated along Memorial Drive and the BeltLine.
How is the Reynoldstown market right now?
Closed sales over the last year have run roughly 25 to 50 days on market, with well-prepared single-family on BeltLine-adjacent blocks moving in 14 to 25 days and townhomes varying more by price point. Demand stays steady because of the BeltLine plus Krog plus rail combination, which keeps Reynoldstown firmly in the rotation for buyers who shopped Inman Park or Cabbagetown first and want similar walkability at a softer price point.
Is Reynoldstown walkable?
Yes, especially the blocks adjacent to the BeltLine, Krog Street Market, and Memorial Drive. Walk Score is in the high 70s to high 80s depending on the block. Krog Street Market, the BeltLine Eastside Trail, and the Memorial Drive retail stretch are all within a 5 to 10 minute walk from most homes. The MARTA Inman Park-Reynoldstown station on the eastern edge handles longer trips, and the bike infrastructure on the BeltLine is strong.
What schools are assigned to Reynoldstown?
Burgess-Peterson Academy for elementary, Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School, and Maynard H. Jackson High School in Atlanta Public Schools. Confirm current zone assignment with APS before relying on it for an offer, since boundaries can shift.
What architectural styles are common in Reynoldstown?
The historic stock leans on shotgun and folk cottages from the 1880s to 1910s (about 25%) and craftsman bungalows from 1910 to 1930 (about 25%). Post-war cottages and ranches make up another 15%. The newer layer is modern infill single-family along the BeltLine (about 15%) and townhome rows and mid-rise condos along Memorial Drive and the BeltLine (about 20%). Block-by-block character varies more here than in Cabbagetown or Inman Park because the neighborhood has changed faster over the last 15 years.
How does Reynoldstown compare to Inman Park or Cabbagetown?
Inman Park sits north and gives you deeper historic stock (Painted Ladies, Queen Annes) and a higher overall price tier, generally $1.2M to $2M for renovated single-family. Cabbagetown sits west and gives you a more uniform historic streetscape (mill houses, very small lots) and a slightly lower price band. Reynoldstown sits in the middle on price, packages BeltLine plus Krog plus MARTA rail plus walkability into one address, and offers the widest mix of housing types from townhomes at $450k up through new builds at $1.5M. Best fit depends on whether you prioritize architectural consistency, the specific price tier, or the four-amenity package.
