The Municipal Market
Historic food hall of produce, meat and seafood stalls beside global street-food stands under one fireproof brick roof.
This guide to the Municipal Market in Atlanta traces the food-stall culture built here, starting with a praline seller known as Miss D, whose single folding table grew into a small empire. It follows the market's own origin story, from a tent farmers pitched on the ashes of a 1917 downtown fire to the brick hall the women of the Atlanta Woman's Club funded and architect A. Ten Eyck Brown made fireproof in 1924. You'll hear how other Atlanta restaurant chains got their start at a stall here, and about the tornado that nearly ended it all in 2008. Walk the aisles slowly and follow your nose past the meat cases.
