Winter revelers will have a new place to ice skate in Atlanta this year.
A 3,500-square-foot rink will open at The Roof at Ponce City Market on Nov. 20, according to a Tuesday news release.
"Skate the Sky" will be an extension of Slater Hospitality concepts Skyline Park and beer garden Nine Mile Station. The covered space will have holiday lights and decorations, and hot toddies will be available from the amusement park.
Installation, which began recently, requires cranes to lay the 10th-floor rink.
