Atlanta annexations and wards

From its incorporation in 1847, the municipal boundaries of Atlanta, Georgia, United States, were extended repeatedly from a small area around its railroad station to today's city covering 131.7 square miles (341 km²).

Prior to 1954, Atlanta was divided into political divisions called wards. The number of wards were increased as the city grew.
