ABOUT SUMMERHILL
The area that became Summerhill was established in 1865 after the devastation of the Civil War. It became home to freed slaves and the majority of Atlanta‘s Jewish population, including Leo Frank, a Jewish pencil factory owner that was lynched in Marietta after being suspected of killing a young child worker.
Before World War II, Georgia Avenue was a thriving business district with stores and a movie theater. It became an enclave for the African-American community, despite segregation. But in the 1960s, “urban renewal” left neighborhoods bulldozed and the highway widened, pushing the area into disrepair.
