O4W IS ALSO HOME TO SOME OF ATLANTA'S MOST IMPORTANT HISTORY.
Located just east of downtown Atlanta, Old Fourth Ward is a dichotomy of trendy developments and, as the site of Martin Luther King Jr.’s childhood home, meaningful history. Creative energy reverberates through the neighborhood as you stroll down the BeltLine’s Eastside Trail, the artery that stretches from Piedmont Park to Reynoldstown. It’s not unusual to see a muralist at work and, if you look carefully, you might spot a Tiny Door. The creativity spills over into the neighborhood’s restaurants, many considered the hottest in Atlanta, with sleek design and innovative menus. There are also hidden green spaces to explore and hip boutiques. Come hungry and wear comfortable shoes, as the neighborhood is best explored on foot. This is our guide to the city's Old Fourth Ward.
What to do in Old Fourth Ward
Atlanta is notorious for tearing down historic buildings, so it was exciting when Jamestown (the former owners of Chelsea Market) purchased the former Sears, Roebuck and Co. warehouse, built in the 1920s, and converted it to a mixed-use property that now is the popular Ponce City Market. There’s a food hall, rooftop amusement park, shops, apartments, and BeltLine access. Visiting the 2.1 million-square-foot property can be overwhelming, so it's best to go with a plan: feast on Indian street food at Botiwalla, scope out the crystals at Modern Mystic, and try a show-stopping cocktail at the forthcoming Bar Vegan (another concept by Pinky Cole).
If you want to learn more about the area, Atlanta History Tour's founder, Akila McConnell, knows how to make history fun and approachable, while still honoring the weight it carries. This is especially true of her King Historic District Tour. It covers about 1.5 miles of an area that played a huge role in the Civil Rights Movement; stops include Ebenezer Baptist Church and the King Center.
