The Original DES Dunwoody Elementary School

5339 Chamblee Dunwoody Road has hosted many facilities the past 50 years.  Currently its the site of the North DeKalb Cultural Center.  Why it is not yet called the Dunwoody Cultural Arts Center is a mystery. It should be renamed to reflect its owner (City of Dunwoody).  At this site you'll find the Spruill Center for the Arts, Stage Door Players, and the Dunwoody/DeKalb library.

If you've ever been inside the Spruill section of this building it's easy to see it is a former school, Dunwoody Elementary School.  The Stage Door Player area was the school's auditorium.  The library was added to the former school in 1989 (same time as adding the Cultural Arts component).  

The address is 5339 everywhere except the city's GIS site. showing it as 5349
