"The former Redbird space in Westside Provisions District in West Midtown now houses Paya Thai, opening on October 8. The restaurant comes from Alex Kinjo, who owns MF Sushi, Yakitori Kona, and Kinjo Room, and the team behind Osha Thai Sushi Galleria. The restaurant will be walk-in only for the first month, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution." - Henna Bakshi
"In bustling West Midtown, Westside Provisions District is a prime example of adaptive reuse prevalent in Atlanta as a 100-year-old former meatpacking plant turned into a retail and dining hotspot. Aesthetically, it’s a treat with its historic brick-meets-modern glass facade, complete with skyline views from a footbridge spanning the railroad tracks. Those seeking a taste of the bougie life will appreciate WSPD. It’s not all fancy, there are casual options like Brash Coffee in a glass-enclosed shipping container and chains like Shake Shack and Flower Child, but those aren’t the primary reasons you go. It’s especially great for date night at Little Sparrow or Marcel’s (an elegant steakhouse)—plan your visit around sunset and capture the moment on the footbridge." - Lia Picard, Jennifer Bradley Franklin
"Crafted Westside is a true symbol of what is so great about this Atlanta neighborhood - local artisans and designers coming together to share their creations, all within a space that allows them to grow their brand and perfect their craft. Here you’ll find a truly unique vendor mix - from jewelry and accessories to art and décor. This is where local is made." - Resource Branding
"A summertime festival dedicated to tomatoes returns on Sunday, July 30 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., benefiting Georgia Organics and featuring local farmers, chefs, and bartenders serving tomato-forward dishes and drinks. Examples include a caprese made with farm-grown tomatoes, a cipollini pasta with bronze fennel, zhug, fermented greens and tomatoes from local farms, and a tea- and tomato-leaf–infused non-alcoholic cocktail; tickets are $95 per person and include food and drink tastings." - Beth McKibben
"I see the Westside Provisions District has been a focal point of substantial transformation and turnover along Howell Mill between 14th and 8th streets over the last five years and is the site where Shake Shack will take over the former Yeah Burger space." - Beth McKibben
