Centennial Olympic Park, Atlanta Photos

Centennial Olympic Park transformed a massive parking & secondary area west of the Peachtree spine of downtown Atlanta into a people-friendly place offering a walking space between downtown & many of the other facilities built for the 1996 Olympics. The major Olympic symbol marking this Park are the Olympic Rings which form the base of an interactive fountain.
