Atlanta, Georgia
Built in 1961 as the first phase of AMERICASMART®-ATLANTA, a major component of Peachtree Center, the Merchandise Mart initiated development by generating a significant base of new commercial activity for Atlanta. Originally built as a low-budget, 22-story, one million square foot building incorporating straightforward floor plans to maximize interior showroom space, demand for space doubled its size in 1968 and later prompted the addition of another 600,100 square feet (55,800 sm) in 1985. Also housed within the Mart are luxurious meeting rooms and an exhibition hall.
