The heart of Atlanta’s Jewish community
In 1962, Congregation Beth Jacob was established on Lavista Road and turned Biltmore Acres into a hub for Atlanta's Orthodox Jewish residents. “Toco Hills has a diverse Jewish community, and it attracts people of all ages from all over,” says Fran Putney, a senior writer for Atlanta Jewish Times." “Young people in our community aren't leaving Atlanta for New York or Los Angeles now. They're staying here.” Congregation Beth Jacob is the longest-standing synagogue on Lavista, and other synagogues like Ner HaMizrach, New Toco Shul and Chabad of Toco Hills now line the street. The area has other houses of worship like St. Bartholomew's Episcopal Church and Peachtree Baptist Church.
