It is my understanding that the Landmark’s proximity to Grady made getting their license quite a challenge, and that Trader Joe’s location languished for months waiting for same.

That said, Decatur and the responsible consumption of fine adult beverages go together like peaches and cream. Maybe a movie theater/brew pub should be the next project tackled by the Brickstore boys? ;)

I have heard and know nothing.

Their website’s still live:

Movie co-op/foundation runs the theater and any profits go towards the maintenance of the building. Maybe some city rec funding, so that the facility can also be used for sr. programs or after school programs?

Anyone want to buy the parking lot next to Eddie’s? Those condos are never being built.
