The Luckie Marietta District has announced it’s new members to the district, including Peachtree Trolley Company, Park Bar, ATL Cruzers and Atlanta Reptile Zoo. All four businesses are now part of the membership-based business alliance that strives to further the historic area as a premier destination for both residents and visitors, alike.

Spearheaded by David Marvin, founder, owner and president of Legacy Property Group, the Luckie Marietta District now has more than 60 business members.

“The expansion of the Luckie Marietta District reinforces Downtown’s strong appeal towards unique events, venues and attractions,” said Marvin.  “The Downtown area, particularly the Luckie Marietta District, continues gaining strength as a must-visit destination and we are excited to increase the distinctive offerings for visitors.”

Owner of Park Bar (parkbaratlanta.com), Matt Tainow said, “We picked a location in the Luckie Marietta District based on its exposure to the heart of the city. There is so much happening down here every day and we are thrilled to be a part of the constant excitement that the district has created.”

The Peachtree Trolley Company (thepeachtreetrolley.com), which offers 90-minute fully-narrated tours originating at Centennial Par, will introduce visitors to all of the city’s sites and attractions. Similarly, ATL Cruzers (atlcruzers.com) offers electric car tours, which explores off-the-beaten-path neighborhoods and the city’s historic sites.

Located on Walton Street, Atlanta Reptile Zoo (wildforreptiles.com) features more that 25 reptiles from all over the world. Guided tours and exhibits are lead by the staff herpetologist and there’s even a petting zoo in the courtyard.
