HISTORY of Riverdale, Ga

Although Riverdale is a metropolitan suburb today, with a diverse and dynamic population, it has not always been a suburban community. Settlers moved to the area, now known as the City of Riverdale, long before the Civil War came to Georgia in the 1860's.

In 1887, a railroad track was built from Atlanta to Fort Valley. There were main stops locally and in a place known as Selina.Eventually, the railroad became desperately in need of loads of cord wood, while, at the same time, farmers needed cash. A farmer named Monroe Huie developed an idea to provide wood to the railroad. As a result, farmers began to cut and haul their wood to Rape's Crossing. Source

Make Riverdale your home away from home when exploring Atlanta and its many attractions, such as the Clayton County International Park, home of the 1996 beach volleyball Olympic competition and a filming location for "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" and Tyler Perry's "The Family that Preys." See exhibits of film and video memorabilia from local productions in the Clayton County Visitor Center. Also nearby is the Atlanta State Farmers Market, one of the largest outdoor produce markets in the United States.

When you visit, be sure to sample some of the great restaurants like El Pulgarcito de Centro America, a modest Salvadoran restaurant serving authentic pupusas. Home of the Riverdale Centre, the city hosts concert series, family reunions, an annual Seafood & Music Festival and many more events throughout the year.
