181 Armour Dr. - MCM Realty Partners — 181 Armour Dr.

If your business is looking to tap into the pulse of Atlanta’s urban growth, there’s no better place to plant your flag than 181 Armour Dr NE. Nestled in the heart of the BeltLine’s Armour Yards district, this 18,467 SF commercial and industrial property offers a rare opportunity for versatile, high-exposure flex space in one of the city’s most dynamic, walkable corridors.

Offered by MCM Realty Partners, 181 Armour Yards is more than a property—it’s a launchpad for businesses ready to thrive in a creative, collaborative, and high-traffic environment. Whether you’re a food and beverage operator, design-forward showroom, tech startup, or logistics provider, this location puts you right where culture meets commerce.

Why 181 Armour Yards Stands Out

The space at 181 Armour Dr NE features:

18,467 SF of open, flexible space
Glass dock-high loading door installed, with the potential to add two more
Floor drain systems in place, making it ideal for food-grade uses or production
I-MIX zoning, supporting a broad range of commercial and industrial tenants
High ceilings, and warehouse-style architectural character
Ample on-site parking (60+ spaces)

This property offers the bones of an adaptive reuse gem, with the infrastructure to support Business HQ, event-driven brands, food production facilities, or hybrid retail/showroom uses.

BeltLine Advantage: The Power of Being OTB (“On The BeltLine”)

Unlike many industrial properties that sit far outside the city core, 181 Armour Yards benefits from its strategic location positioned directly on the future Atlanta BeltLine. This growing multi-use trail system connects residents and businesses across the city, and properties along its path are experiencing unmatched foot traffic, increased visibility, and long-term growth potential.

Armour Yards has emerged as one of the most exciting mixed-use districts along the BeltLine, blending industrial heritage with modern lifestyle amenities. The area is buzzing with breweries, distilleries, fitness studios, and eateries—creating a built-in customer base and collaborative ecosystem for any incoming tenant.

Surrounded by Atlanta’s Most Talked-About Brands

When you're at 181 Armour, you join a neighborhood filled with energy and cultural relevance. Just steps away:

SweetWater Brewing Company – A top Atlanta brewery and major regional draw
East Pole Coffee Co. – Artisan coffee that draws daily walk-in traffic
Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q – One of Atlanta’s most beloved restaurant brands
American Spirit Works Distillery – High-end spirits producer
Capella Cheese – Local gourmet food retailer
Coyote Logistics – Part of the UPS family, headquartered in Armour Yards

Being surrounded by nationally recognized names boosts your business’s visibility, accessibility, and networking potential—from walk-in customers to vendor partnerships.

Who Should Lease Here?

181 Armour Yards is ideal for:

Showroom-based retailers who want BeltLine exposure and a high-style footprint
Creative agencies and production companies needing flexible space
Food/beverage producers looking for space with existing drainage and high ceilings
Storage or distribution operations that benefit from dock-high loading and proximity to I-85
Startup companies wanting an edge location with Midtown access

With custom build-out potential, the space can be configured to match your business model and scale with your growth.
