South Downtown is at the center of everything. All those things we'd love to see happen everywhere in our city are happening here, now.

South Downtown is the heartbeat of the city — the central location to sports, business and the political structure of Atlanta. It's a neighborhood waiting to be reborn and I'm excited for the rebirth.

In South Downtown, the things that make us unique and hold history and tell stories are all here. The architecture, the culture, the businesses, the people – we should shine a light on all of it.
Beth Malone
Executive Director, Dashboard Collective
We chose very consciously to be in South Downtown. What's beautiful about this place is that it feels like the last frontier where you can define the city's destiny.

We've been right here for 79 years. Most mom-and-pops don't last that long. But we've made it where you have to come to us. Being on Mitchell Street is part of the whole experience.
