A right take of the rooftop at Ponce City Market
This is on the rooftop of the famous Ponce City Market. This building was originally the Sears shipping center. After they were closed down for business, it became a city hall. On top of the roof it is a lot to experience and a variety of things to look at. When you look down you can see lot of buildings and shopping centers that millions and millions of people visit in one day from the looks of it. From so far up most of the building look very far away and most of them were made of stone or brick. Buildings that you know look not so pleasant straight up, looked really nice far-away.
The elevator used to go up to the rooftop.
The ride up to the rooftop was a very memorable experience. You can tell by looking at some of the walls in the building that it is a little old, yet renovated. The elevator was a delivery looking type of elevator where you have to pay, and inside the elevator were windows where you can look at everything getting smaller while you are coming up.
The Skyline Elevator
There was a huge bar to protect people that want a tour of the rooftop to not fall out. When this was a warehouse for Sears, this is where they used to send the packages to the top of the building. Who would have ever known that later it would transport people for a rooftop tour.
The mini golf course on the rooftop
Once you reach the top of the roof on the left side there is a peaceful-mellow area where you can play mini-golf with friends and have drink. The way the golf course was set up looks a s if the open space was made for people to have a good time while feeling as if they were on top of the world. Not many people were up on the top adventuring the different fun things they have, but the very few people that were there were chilling and having a great time. Most of the people were acting as if this was there on private event.
A soon to be 5-star restaurant on the roof
When you walk into another area you see these very colorful balloons on the ceiling, that signifies that there will be something new coming soon. The balloons light up all the time and they aren’t regular balloons, they are glass balloons. What I admire the most was the different shades of blue that they had and the sizes of them and the way they were placed.
The rooftop also has a flower garden where they will soon build vegetables for the current restaurants that are inside of the Ponce city market building. Along the flower garden, there are benches placed along the side for people to admire the view of the wonder city of Atlanta. The garden water spray comes on every ten minutes to refresh the beautiful flowers and also to help them develop.
The event area
The event area is where they have a many many weddings and birthday parties. On the floor is a great pattern that kind of shapes the building in a unique way. It is located on the right side of the roof top and gives a great view of Atlanta as well. This was by far the best part of my visit. You can see Perimeter Mall, downtown Buckhead and other noticeable spots. This was by far the coolest place to visit.
