Krog Street Market, the reconfiguration of Tyler Perry’s old Inman Park studio, just took a major step toward opening with the announcement this week of seven signed tenants. Of them, five will be restaurants and food vendors that will help the market realize its ambition to become a destination for gastronomically minded Atlantans, akin to the Ferry Building in San Francisco.
