Description
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.

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.
