The fireproof brick and concrete building opened May 1, 1924, as the Municipal Market of Atlanta, in the exact geographic center of Atlanta. It shortly became the largest single retail center for farm products in the state. It truly was "the place to shop" for every Atlantan. A segregated city at the time, however, Atlanta's racial divisions were reflected in the market: blacks were only permitted to patronize stalls lining the curb, while whites shopped within. The market's current name refers to this era.
