Smyrna's Cumberland district: ballpark energy, everyday calm.
144 Boxcar Way SE sits in the Cumberland Station community of Smyrna, Georgia, a 2020s townhome pocket in the Cumberland/Galleria district. The area is best known for Truist Park, home of the Atlanta Braves, and The Battery Atlanta, the mixed-use district wrapped around it, but it is also a working suburb with quick interstates and Cobb County's schools.
