(106)   This fragment of breastworks is a remnant of the city fortifications occupied by Confederate forces during the siege of Atlanta, July 22 – Aug. 25, 1864. The line completely encircled the city, aggregating twelve miles of forts and rifle pits, and was laid out by Lemuel P. Grant, engineer, who in 1883 donated the original 100 acres of this area for a city park.
