Five Points (Athens)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Five Points is a low-density residential and commercial community in Athens, Georgia, centered on the intersection of South Milledge Avenue, South Lumpkin Street, and Milledge Circle. The area abuts the south-southwest edge of the University of Georgia campus and is known for its mix of students and older residents, many of the latter being employed by the University. The area is home to several landmark local businesses, including Hodgson's Pharmacy, Jittery Joe's coffee house, the high-end eatery Five and Ten, and the (recently closed, December 2006) Italian restaurant/bar Sons of Italy.
