Pratt Engineering put up the brick and steel sheds on Kirkwood farmland in 1904 to make sulfuric acid and the gas that carbonates soft drinks, then turned to explosive munitions during the First World War. The Pullman Company bought the site in 1926 and repaired sleeping cars there until it was abandoned in the late 1970s. Georgia bought it in 1990 for a dinner train to Stone Mountain and shut that down three years later. Film crews worked the ruins for the Hunger Games and Baby Driver before it reopened as an entertainment district.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
