About this park:
A young boy grows up in a time of segregation…A dreamer is moved by destiny into leadership of the modern civil rights movement…This was Martin Luther King, Jr. The park includes his childhood home, the “I Have a Dream” World Peace Rose Garden, the first racially-integrated fire station in Atlanta, and Ebenezer Baptist Church, the church where MLK Jr was minister.
Why did we choose these colors?
A photo of MLK Jr.’s childhood home inspired our colorway.
