About the Business

In 1918, Atlanta established a "curb market" on land cleared by a massive fire that had swept through Atlanta the year before. The market, set up in a huge tent, was an immediate success bringing urban consumers direct access to farmers and their products.

Wishing to give the curb market a more permanent home, the Women's Club of Atlanta raised money for a fireproof brick and concrete building which opened on May 1st, 1924 and was called the Municipal Market of Atlanta. At the time, it was located in the exact geographic center of Atlanta and quickly became "the place to shop" for every Atlantan. The market's current name reflects an era when stalls and carts were displayed on the curb for shoppers.

Established in 1924.
