NormalBnB Walkable Guidebook
Neighborhoods
If "normal" life includes a walkable community, the beloved Athens Farmer’s Market, open air dining, friendly neighbors, outdoor activities and parks, and a unique community tucked near the UGA Health Science campus and Piedmont Athens Regional Hospital – then Normaltown is the place to be!
Normaltown gets its name from the original State Normal School, which trained future teachers, and later became a Naval Supply Corps School. The facility still exists, and is now part of the UGA Health campus. The adjacent community of Normaltown has continued to evolve as well over the decades. It was one of the first Athens neighborhoods wired for electricity at the turn of the 19th century. In later years, its venues hosted performances by two internationally known, yet local bands: R.E.M. and the B-52s.
Though time continues to pass, Normaltown remains a little funky, a little up-and-coming, a little hip and much beloved by its residents and visitors.
Looking for the heart of Normaltown? Head to the intersection of Prince and Oglethorpe Avenues.
