Morningside

 

Welcome to Morningside

Morningside is a thriving Atlanta neighborhood that was founded in 1931. Minutes from Midtown, Morningside is bordered by Virginia Highland, VaHi, Ansley Park, and Druid Hills.

 

Like many Atlanta suburbs, Morningside was originally settled by Native Americans and later transformed into a streetcar suburb that allowed people who worked downtown to escape the city after work hours. When first created, Morningside only had eight homes. Many of these new home owners were from northeastern Georgia, but others followed from the Carolinas and Virginia too. However, shortly after WWII, Morningside began to quickly develop into the bustling suburb that it is today.
