Lenox

Out and about for a Saturday outing to good old Atlanta. Borrowed museum pass from Gwinnett Public Library to Atlanta History Center for the third time. Found a shorter route by getting off the Marta gold line at Lenox station & walk less than 3 miles towards the history center. Had saved me a ton of transfer between Marta trains & buses.

Lennox is a pretty simple station. One of the few I've seen without a wall sculpture directly carved in the wall. And it's pretty dull if you ask me. Not like arts center transit station for instance. No public pianos either. Being in the high class zone that it is, it's a pretty dissapointing station to be honest.

Very conveniently located right in front of the Lenox Square Mall, I didn't like that there is no security at night. I didn't feel safe when you are in the platform and in the train with people aggressively asking for money and another couple fighting loudly in another corner. The beggar a young man harrased everybody in the train asking for money, even had a shouting match with a young lady that was minding her own business. Definitely more security is needed in the platforms and the trains in the Marta system in order for one to feel safe and comfortable.

It is a okay Shopping mall with heaps of different stores and a big food court at one end of the mall and a huge Apple store. For me there are a bit too many clothing stores to be found and too little other stores like Outdoor clothing etc. It is conveniently located near MARTA Lennox station.

I take MARTA every day to and from work and often get on/off at the Lenox stop. This station is directly next to Lenox Mall and provides very quick access to the Mall Entrance near the food courts. This stop is very convenient for mall shoppers, UGA Buckhead campus students and also offers daily FREE parking. Vending machines for snacks and drinks that take card and apple pay. Very safe environment with constant MARTA security presence. Trains are very rarely delayed and can be expected every 10 mins during the weekdays. Download the MARTA app! $2.50 fare one way, $5.00 round trip but I use the monthly unlimited pass for $95.00. If more people would get over their misplaced stereotypical view of public transport and actually gave MARTA a chance our traffic would improve tenfold!

Station/s are relatively empty nowadays; however, it was clean, ambiance/energy of this station is lost Lenox Mall itself was busy (stores close at 7:p typically.

So easy to get to Lenox Station. If it's a lazy day, I'll take the #27 bus to the station. There's free parking. Walking distance to Lenox Mall. The Gold Line services this station.

Wasn't too happy because when I looked up the closest ride store, Lenox was the closest from MARTA headquarters. But once I got here there is a sign that says no longer customer service. But Google maps stated I could see customer service to purchase my card here. I guess five points is the only place you can purchase the card and pay in person. I am not even going to try the other ride stores that Google states where you can purchase in person.
