Site history
The Atlanta Stove Works, a former pot-belly stove and iron-pan factory opened in 1889, and flourished in the 1920s when it began exporting the 32 BOX stove that sparked industrial demand and expansion. Among other products it produced skillets and wrought-iron furniture. The logo for Krog Street Market is a skillet because of this history After decades of decline, the company ceased operations in 1988. In the late 1990s the west side of the complex was transformed into the mixed-use Atlanta Stove Works development of offices, Rathbun's restaurant and the Krog Bar.The former truck storage building built in the late 1920s on the east side was converted into the first film studio ever for Tyler Perry Studios, now located on 330 acres at the former Fort McPherson in southwest Atlanta. Tyler had purchased 99 Krog Street from Atlanta Stage Works in 2006 for a reported $7 million. The company then sold it to developers in late 2012.
