BeltLine MarketPlace

The Atlanta BeltLine is the most comprehensive revitalization effort ever undertaken in the City of Atlanta.

It is also among the largest, most wide-ranging urban redevelopment and mobility projects currently underway in the United States.

The network of public parks, multi-use trails, transit and affordable housing along a historic 22-mile railroad corridor is enhancing mobility, connecting intown neighborhoods and improving economic opportunity and sustainability.

BeltLine MarketPlace is a pilot program from the Village Market, an organization that empowers the Black community. The MarketPlace provides new, affordable commercial space for local, Black-owned businesses.

From May through November, participating MarketPlace businesses lease affordable BeltLine-facing storefronts and gain access to the two-million annual passersby. Operators also receive business training.

BeltLine MarketPlace just opened in June 2022. Hop on your bike and give an entrepreneur the business. Business hours vary but many are open into the night.
