Walking Around Ponce City Market Atlanta | 4k | Ambient Music
Walking Around Ponce City Market was Fascinating. When I lived in Atlanta, Ponce City Market wasn't Ponce City Market. It was a High School when i was there. So going back and walking around was really cool. I went early morning which is why you won't see many people.
Info On Walking around Ponce City Market:
Located in Atlanta's historic Old Fourth Ward neighborhood on the iconic throughway Ponce de Leon Avenue, this historic former Sears, Roebuck & Company building was completely renovated and re-opened in 2014 as the city's largest adaptive used project, Ponce City Market. Adjacent to the Beltline Eastside Trail and across from the neighborhood's namesake park — one of the city's best — the building features an expanse food hall, local and national retail shops and a rooftop amusement park as well as office space and high-end apartments.
Whether you need to grab a quick coffee before a meeting or Beltline stroll, want to indulge in retail therapy, sample food from local vendors or enjoy a meal and skyline views while the sunsets, here's your guide to the best food, shops and activities at Ponce City Market.
History and Background
Now listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the building that houses Ponce City Market was initially owned by Sears, Roebuck and Co., which built the facility in 1926 on land that once featured an amusement park and natural springs. At over 2 million square feet, the original structure included a retail store, warehouse and regional office. The store and warehouse closed in 1979, while the regional office continued to operate until 1987.
In 1900, the city of Atlanta purchased the building and converted it into City Hall East, an office building for city, state and federal employees with an art gallery on the lower level.
The property was then sold in 2011 to Jamestown, developer of New York City's famed Chelsea Market as well as Atlanta's own Westside Provisions District, and the company renovated the property and re-opened it as Ponce City Market in 2014.
Where to Eat
Whether you're seeking a quick jolt of java pre meeting or workout, need to grab a bite on the go or want a full sit down experience, Ponce City Market's Central Food Hall — the Southeast's largest — has an option for you.
What to Do
In addition to eating around the globe, Ponce City Market's primary attraction is its rooftop amusement park, Skyline Park. From miniature golf to boardwalk games like ring toss and Skee-Ball to the three-story slide, the park offers fun for the whole family. Admission is $10 for adults, $7 for children 12 and under and free for kids three and under. The park is open from 12 to 9 p.m. on Sunday, 3 to 10 p.m. Monday-Wednesday and 3-11 p.m. on Thursday. On Friday, hours are 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. and on Saturday, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., with tickets from 5 p.m. on both days dedicated to crowds 21 and over.
Tickets can be purchased at the glass ticket booth in the courtyard.
Get hungry while you play? Tacos, hot dogs, soft pretzels and other snacks are also available for purchase.
If shopping until you drop is your kind of fun, Ponce City Market has a variety of options. For one-of-a-kind pieces, stop by Citizen Supply, which features a mix of clothing, jewelry, accessories and housewares from more than 200 local and international artisans and vendors. The store also has its own bar and lounge, Likewise, which offers cheese, charcuterie and other snacks as well as cocktails, beer and wine by the glass. Shop for crystals, tarot cards, candles and more at the Modern Mystic Shop and for socially and sustainably conscious vintage clothing, handmade jewelry and more at Coco & Mischa, both locally owned stores.

Want to work up a sweat? Visit Core Power Yoga or the Forum Athletic Club, which offers spin, TRX, cardio conditioning and other fitness classes seven days a week.
Ponce City Market is best accessed on foot or bicycle via the Beltline Eastside Trail, but also offers valet and self park for those coming via car. For self parking, you'll need to either download the ParkMobile app and enter your license plate number and 222 as the zone number or use the pay by foot kiosk (you'll still need your license plate number and to pay before you enter the building).

Atlanta GA - Ponce City Market Rooftop - Nine Miles Station - St Germain Bakery - ATL Film Festival
We had the privilege of spending some time in Atlanta Georgia for a weekend. Tim Hall and Dustin Gooch were kind enough to show us around Ponce City Market, a fantastic rehabbed Sears warehouse building used for apartments and retail stores. You can also go to the Rooftop portion of Ponce City Market to try out Nine Miles Station, a fine restaurant with a killer view of the Atlanta skyline.
We hit the local coffee shop, had a time in a hat store and book shop. and left the day for a showing of Menashe, the closing night film for the Atlanta International Film Festival. We heartily recommend it if it's available in your area!
We loved our time in Atlanta and hope to see it again soon!
Atlanta’s Ponce City Market
One of the fascinating things about the city of Atlanta, Georgia is how often it has had to change and adapt to forces around it. Sometimes it’s gone kicking and screaming, and sometimes it’s forged its own path. Because it’s arguably undergone more major cultural and economic changes than most American cities, it’s a great opportunity to study the evolution of American life. Specifically, we’re talking today about the Ponce City Market, formerly the Sears and Roebuck building, which is a great example of how business models come and go, how commerce affects cultural life, and how businesses can impact a city by investing in the structures they will eventually leave behind. My guest today is Caroline Eubanks, a freelance travel writer whose book This is My South comes out this fall. We chat about how Sears came to Atlanta in the 1920s and what legacy its building leaves behind.
Atlanta after the Civil War As Caroline tells me, Atlanta has had a rocky relationship with its past. The city was notoriously burned during the Civil War, and then suffered another major fire in 1916. So when Sears & Roebuck came to town, their building was the first major structure in their chosen neighborhood. Atlanta has also not always appreciated its landmarks, tearing down many buildings that are just a few decades old to replace with new ones, so the fact that the Ponce City Market building is still around is remarkable. Atlanta was struggling for jobs after Reconstruction, so Sears coming to town in 1926 was a big deal.
What Sears meant to the South The Sears business model of mail-order goods and home delivery was a huge boon to the South, where many rural communities couldn’t otherwise get access to many of the things Sears sold. So when the city was looking to attract businesses, an entrepreneur named Ivan Allen Sr. teamed up with the Chamber of Commerce and wooed Sears to Atlanta (along with another little-known company, General Motors). But the city Sears landed in was still struggling with the after-effects of the Civil War, with hard segregation between whites and blacks, race riots and more.
The decline of Sears By the 1970s, Atlanta was experiencing what a lot of major urban areas in the U.S. saw happening: the rise of the suburbs and white flight. Where going into the city to shop at Sears was once a big part of life in the region, large shopping malls were opening in the ‘burbs, and the entire way people bought things shifted. Sears ended up closing its retail store in 1979, and then by 1987 the offices closed as well. The City of Atlanta purchased the two-million-square-foot building in 1990 to use for government offices, but they really only needed the first two floors. But then, in 2010, the city sold the building to a developer named Jamestown, who has developed huge complexes across the United States.
The Rise of Ponce City Market In 2013, Jamestown began developing the space and it opened a year later. Now it’s a thriving residential and commercial complex, including a world-class food hall. It’s transformed the neighborhood, of course, and it’s truly an example of what can happen if cities hold onto their landmarks and think creatively about how they can be used. And there’s more to see around the Market as well. As Caroline tells me, it’s important to check out Sweet Auburn, the area where many Civil Rights leaders grew up and came together to plan actions. This is a really fascinating chat about a place that doesn’t get a lot of attention from tourists, the American South, and I highly recommend checking out Caroline’s book when it publishes this fall.

Ponce City Market: This 2,100,000-square-foot (200,000 m2) building, one of the largest by volume in the Southeast United States, was used by Sears, Roebuck and Co. from 1926--1987 and later by the City of Atlanta as City Hall East. The building's lot is 16 acres (65,000 m2) large.
The City sold the property for $27 million to Jamestown, a private-equity group, on July 11, 2011.
Jamestown is redeveloping this building as Ponce City Market; an adaptive reuse development that will introduce more than a million square-feet of retail, office and residential space to East Atlanta.
Ponce City Market will restore 1.1 million square feet of the historic Sears, Roebuck & Company building, creating a vibrant urban centerpiece that combines 300,000 square feet of retail and restaurants, 450,000 square feet of office space and 260 residential units.

Summer in Atlanta, Georgia
In Winter, we miss the Summer in Atlanta.
Atlanta (/ætˈlæntə/) is the capital and most populous city in the U.S. state of Georgia. With an estimated 2018 population of 498,044,[9] it is also the 37th most-populous city in the United States. The city serves as the cultural and economic center of the Atlanta metropolitan area, home to 5.9 million people and the ninth largest metropolitan area in the nation.
Ponce City Market is a mixed-use development located in a historic building in Atlanta, with national and local retail anchors, restaurants, a food hall, boutiques and offices, and residential units. It is located where the BeltLine crosses Ponce de Leon Avenue in the Old Fourth Ward where that neighborhood touches the Virginia Highland, Poncey-Highland and Midtown neighborhoods.
The Atlanta BeltLine (also Beltline or Belt Line) is a former railway corridor around the core of Atlanta, Georgia, under development in stages as a multi-use trail. Some portions are already complete, while others are still in a rough state but hikeable. Using existing rail track easements, the BeltLine is designed to improve transportation, add green space, and promote redevelopment. There are longer-term visions for streetcar or light-rail lines along all or part of the corridor.

A Week in Atlanta: Passion Conference 2020, Centennial Park, Ponce City Market, Aquarium
Hola hola! Esta semana mis amigos y yo viajamos a Atlanta para la conferencia de jóvenes universitarios Passion 2020. Además de la conferencia, aprovechamos a movernos por la ciudad y conocer lugares nuevos.
Esta vez, quería que el vlog fuera de ayuda para que si van a Atlanta puedan tener una idea de qué lugares visitar y más o menos cuánto gastar.
La manera de transportarse es barata y fácil de usar. RECOMENDACIÓN: compren la tarjeta de MARTA que uno puede rellenar con dinero y no solamente los ONE-WAY Rounds. Además de andar en MARTA, usamos Uber y los scooters de LIME.
Los lugares que visitamos son relativamente de bajo costo, y muchas cosas van a depender del parqueo o de si las entradas tienen alguna oferta al comprarse en línea.
Muchísimas gracias nuestra Host Family porque en serio fueron los mejores.
Que este año sea uno lleno de la gracia de JESUS y de proclamar su gloria.
Love,
Debs.
