During my walk through downtown Atlanta, I passed Hardy Ivy Park, a small but meaningful triangular park at the intersection of Peachtree and West Peachtree Streets. The park is named after Hardy Ivy, the first European settler in the area that would later become Atlanta.

Hardy Ivy Park is a pocket park located in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, United States. The park is situated on a small triangular tract of land at the divergence of Peachtree Street and West Peachtree Street. Its namesake, Hardy Ivy, is generally considered the first person of European descent to settle in what is now Atlanta. The park features the Carnegie Education Pavilion, which was moved there in the late 1990s. Additionally, in 2011, the plaza within the park was officially renamed the Xernona Clayton Plaza in honor of civil rights leader Xernona Clayton
