For decades, the historic Pratt-Pullman Yard in east Atlanta lay vacant except for graffiti artists and other trespassers. Now, Atomic Entertainment LLC’s Adam Rosenfelt and Maureen Meulen want to give the 27-acre property a new life while also paying tribute to its industrial roots.
According to this week’s Atlanta Business Chronicle, over the next nine to 12 months, the new property owners will kick off construction of a mixed-use district that will include one soundstage, a boutique hotel, an outdoor concert venue, residential, office and co-working space and an incubator. The project will cost more than $100 million to complete.
But Atomic can’t get to work just yet. The Atlanta City Council is considering designating Pullman Yard as a historic landmark district, and on Oct. 4 it extended a temporary moratorium on alterations or demolition of properties on the site until Dec. 17.
