Few communities in southwest Georgia have a history as closely linked to the growth of the Albany area as Gailshar Gardens. This residential locality sits west of central Albany in the broad, low-lying terrain of Georgia’s Coastal Plain. The Flint River, Albany’s defining waterway, runs through the city to the east. Albany drew national attention during the 1961–62 Albany Movement, a significant campaign in the American civil-rights struggle. The city’s downtown, riverfront parks and cultural institutions provide the wider context for this part of Dougherty County.
