Best Shopping Malls in Atlanta Area

"The titanic Sears, Roebuck & Co. building (1926) on the newly revitalised BeltLine in the Old Fourth Ward neighbourhood is one of the largest buildings in the Southeast United States. After Sears moved out in 1987, the city of Atlanta took up residence before the site was sold off in 2011 to be turned into this amazing shopping, dining, entertainment and residential space. The soul of Ponce City Market is in the Central Food Hall, which is along the same lines as Manhattan’s Chelsea Market for its globetrotting jumble of grab-and -go food stalls, sit-down restaurants and market vendors specialising in cheese, fresh bread, spices and fish."

"Arguably Atlanta’s most bustling BeltLine food hall and located in the historic Sears, Roebuck & Co. building, Ponce City Market is definitely our largest space on the list. With ample metered parking, loads of shops and a number of local restaurants, Ponce City Market is not to be missed as a destination for Atlantans and out-of-town visitors alike. PCM houses over 20 eateries within its Food Hall and additional choices in surrounding areas."
