Affectionately abbreviated as O4W, the neighborhood is steeped in Atlanta's history, most notably because it marks both the birthplace and final resting place of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Today, it is highlighted by some of the most interesting new developments in the city. The neighborhood is a proverbial melting pot of Atlantans with a number of unique offerings designed to suit any lifestyle. O4W helps stitch together the other neighborhoods around it and contains an eclectic mix of both old and new restaurants, shops, and parks.
Sure it looks like it's falling down from the outside, but this Atlanta staple hosts some of the best concerts and festivals in the city.
The first distillery to open in Atlanta in more than a century, OFD offers great small batch gin and vodka (and they're working on bourbon, too!) in a beautifully rustic homage to old Atlanta. The front tasting room is really well designed, adorned with original containers from R.M. Rose Co. distillery (the last distillery in the city which closed in 1906) and the gleaming copper stills can be seen just past the front room. Plus, their bathroom has a door that looks like a bookshelf!
