Metropolitan Parkway (SW Atlanta)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Metropolitan Parkway is a major thoroughfare through the southwestern portion of Atlanta, Georgia. It is signed throughout as U.S. 19/U.S.41/S.R. 3. Once Metropolitan Parkway reaches Whitehall Street (the southern portion of Peachtree Street), the parkway turns into Northside Drive northward to Marietta, Georgia.

Metropolitan Parkway was once known as "Stewart Avenue." The name was changed because of the area's red light district reputation.
