Segment 1: Commercial Buckhead

One of the Corridor's largest segments (2.46 miles), Commercial Buckhead streteches from city limits near Club Drive in the north, down Peachtree, through the heart of Buckhead.

Phipps Plaza and Lenox Square Mall are among the many major retail offerings in the Corridor. South of Piedmont Road is a slightly less dense area that includes Buckhead Village, where redevelopment is now expected. The Buckhead MARTA station is in this segment near Georgia 400.

The Buckhead Community Improvement District (CID) is currently implementing a long-range streetscape plan called “Peachtree Boulevard” that is complimentary to the Peachtree Corridor vision. The unique nature of the street and the large number of office and retail destinations create traffic congestion during certain times of the day.
