If they want to stay in the Buckhead area, seems like this would be the best spot. <br /><br />I can see H&M filling the Crate & Barrel spot... and here is hoping Top Shop opens at Buckhead Atlanta now that they are targeting stores for all income levels! Would be a great spot for one in Atlanta...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-48729195775108066732011-10-06T12:42:53.343-04:002011-10-06T12:42:53.343-04:00The Centennial Inn on Cone Street was never "...The Centennial Inn on Cone Street was never "abandoned", they are just renovating.

Mark Toro and friends have done nothing to change my mind. The fact that they would even think of charging anyone to go there who may or may not make a purchase was laughable and thankfully (for them) not implemented. While I think its safe to say Yard House is paying somewhere near normal rent, I doubt the same can be said for Pinkberry and Drew Lewis, neither of which are doing well OUTSIDE of Atlantic Station. I've said time and time again, The Grove in LA did everything right ( tenant mix, amenities, parking, etc) that Atlantic Station did and had continued to DO wrong. That is all.Atlantan99https://www.blogger.com/profile/06115362060612910966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-13130506215287830412011-10-04T06:09:08.525-04:002011-10-04T06:09:08.525-04:00Think it is fair to say that Atlanta has enough bu...Think it is fair to say that Atlanta has enough burger and yogurt places now.

And now they have decided to blast big band music on their loudspeakers, I'm assuming to keep the gangs and people of color away. That was an affront to my eardrums this weekend. And the security is such overkill that it's way too much of an intimidation factor for me to ever want to spend much time there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-43785302962756542542011-10-03T07:53:22.184-04:002011-10-03T07:53:22.184-04:00Lenox mall Mgmt says that Prada will open the begi...Lenox mall Mgmt says that Prada will open the beginning of dec.

Kennesaw is outside my coverage area (maybe yours too), so I don't know exactly where it'll be. Location #6 may be Cumming.<br /><br />And I still think Genghis Grill in Alpharetta is indefinitely stalled.
