Lenox station (MARTA)

Lenox is an underground metro station in Atlanta, Georgia, serving the Gold Line of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority. Located in the Buckhead district, it provides access to Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza, which are located on Peachtree Street across the street from one another, as well as the nearby neighborhoods of Lenox Park and Pine Hills. It also provides connecting bus service to Piedmont Park, Atlanta Botanical Garden, and Ansley Mall.

This is the northernmost Gold Line station in Fulton County. Northeast of the station, the line crosses into DeKalb County.

History
The station was built on the site of Johnsontown, a small community of about 30 African American families originally settled in 1912. The properties were acquired in the early 1980s and the houses razed to make way for the station. The station opened in 1984 when the Northeast Line (now Gold) was extended from Arts Center to Brookhaven (now Brookhaven/Oglethorpe).

Initially, the code was N7. But in 1994, it was changed to NE7.

Parking
Lenox has both a parking lot (193 spaces) and parking deck (128 spaces) for MARTA patrons.
