Lee Playhouse

The ca. 1937 Lee Playhouse is located along the path between McElreath Hall and the back entrance of the Atlanta History Museum and is open to play by children of all ages.

The playhouse was originally built by Charles R. Roberts, an Atlanta businessman, for his daughter. Like many real homes, the playhouse was expanded during the years; in fact, the rear addition was built for a later owner's cat. This playhouse remained in the same location for more than 60 years, until John Lee, the current owner of the Woodward Way home, donated it to the Atlanta History Center in 1998.
