About East Lake
Terrace
East Lake Terrace, located between East Lake Golf Club and the Belvedere Park area, is a residential and commuter-friendly Candler-McAfee neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a wooded, creek-cut terrain. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Memorial Drive corridor near Columbia Drive, where corner markets, takeout counters, and service shops set a practical, lived-in rhythm. Brick ranches and split-levels sit on generous lots, with mature trees softening the street grid. Shoal Creek Park adds trails and open lawn for a low-key outdoor reset. For a cultural anchor nearby, the 7 Stages Theatre and the DeKalb History Center’s courthouse museum in Decatur draw regular calendar energy. MARTA rail at East Lake and Decatur links the area to the wider metro without changing its quiet, residential feel.
