Opening Soon In Midtown: Largest Whole Foods Store In SE

ATLANTA -- The southeast's largest Whole Foods market is set to open in April in Midtown. At a recent meeting of the Midtown Alliance, Bobby Turner, south region president for Whole Foods Market and a Midtown resident, told the gathering the 70,000-square-foot store is on track for an April 5 opening.

The store will be located at 14th and West Peachtree Streets, and will include a rooftop terrace and programming for everything from yoga to movie nights.

Last year, North American Properties unveiled plans for an 87,500-square-foot mixed-use building at the reimagined Colony Square in Midtown. The new six-story building, known as Building 300, will house five floors of office space over street-level retail and is estimated to deliver in early 2020.

Whole Foods Market Inc. will be the anchor tenant with their South regional office, and occupy about 30,000 square feet, which encompasses two floors of the new building.

The office relocation will bring approximately 90 Whole Foods Market regional team members to Midtown. The new regional headquarters will feature a break room at the front door with one long communal table, the centerpiece of the space. Whole Foods Market will occupy its new regional office in early 2020.
