ATLANTA — Charlotte-based Asana Partners has acquired Krog Street Market and Atlanta Stove Works, two mixed-use destinations in Atlanta’s Inman Park neighborhood that once housed Tyler Perry Studios. Paces Properties sold both assets to Asana for an undisclosed price. Situated across Krog Street from one another, the properties are adjacent to the Atlanta BeltLine’s Eastside Trail, a former railway corridor-turned-multi-use trail. Krog Street Market houses a food hall and retail shops including Hop City, Bar Mercado, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, Superica, Ticonderoga Club, The Collective and The Merchant. Atlanta Stove Works houses creative office space for firms like Media Star Promotions, Trees Atlanta and Atlanta BeltLine Partnership, as well as three restaurants — Rathbuns, Bell Street Burrito and Krog Bar.
