Pellerin Real Estate has announced its latest project – The Beacon Atlanta in Grant Park. The nine-acre former industrial site at the end of Grant Street has six buildings, which will be revitalized into a mixed-use site offering retail conveniences, health and wellness, office space, arts and culture and dining options. It also sits along the Atlanta BeltLine.
The website says the project might feature such useful amenities as a gym, chiropractor, wellness center, nursery school, salons and a dance/performing arts academy. As for restaurants, the project envisions a mixture of family friendly and food destination restaurants as well as on-site tasting room in what will be called Grant Hall. A live music venue is also planned. There will also be an artists’ walk with working studios that at night convert to storefronts where creatives can sell their collections.
The project is expected to be completed in summer 2017. For more, visit thebeaconatlanta.com.
