Trackside Will Return

May 6, 2009 | 9:41 am

Trackside owner “Doc Al” just wrote in with this comment to a previous post…

Yes, Trackside is definitely coming back – plans for the re-build are currently being formulated. However – it appears that quite a bit of the existing building is going to have to be demolished before it can be rebuilt, so – don’t get worried if you see bulldozers at work in the near future. The goal is to re-create as much of the old Trackside as possible along with some modern upgrades behind the scenes. Stay tuned for updates as the weeks and months go by.

Sweet.  It will be interesting to see exactly how detailed they get in “recreating” the old bar.

Best o’ luck Al!

    Just so long as they don’t “recreate” the ladies room….

    If new building is required, it would be great to get some housing units above (for the bar tolerant).

    Judy, unfortunately I haven’t heard a peep from the 5th Earl folks in a long time. Not sure of their plans.

    I dunno…I don’t think a two-story building would work well there. Most (all?) of the other buildings along that stretch are single-story. Also, it’s nice to be able to see the trees of Agnes Scott behind the building.
