Georgia Railroad Freight Depot, Historic freight depot in Downtown Atlanta, United States.

The Georgia Railroad Freight Depot stands at 65 Martin Luther King Jr Drive, featuring a three-story structure with offices and traditional railway architecture.

Constructed in 1869 by architect Max Corput, this freight depot represents a crucial development in Atlanta's post-Civil War transportation infrastructure.

The renovated depot now functions as a major event space in Atlanta, hosting banquets, trade shows, and community gatherings for up to 1300 people.

Multiple parking facilities surround the depot, including GSU 'G' Deck and Wall Street Parking Lots, with nearby access to Underground Atlanta.

A fire in 1935 destroyed the upper floors and cupola of the depot, leading to reconstruction efforts that maintained its historical elements.
