What’s Happening in Brookhaven?
Village Place Brookhaven, the mixed-use community on Dresden Road has recently gone through a foreclosure proceeding. The community was taken over by a Chicago-based real estate finance and investment firm. The original developer defaulted this year on a $4.2 million construction loan for the project. The total debt on the project exceeded $21 million, in two loans that were held by the Chicago firm.
The Brookhaven development, located on Dresden Drive between Caldwell Road and Camille Drive, includes 41 residences, including lofts and brownstones, and 10 office condominiums built above 30,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space in two buildings, all within a 5-Acre site. It is about a quarter-mile off Peachtree Road, near the Brookhaven/Oglethorpe University MARTA rail station. The community sits in the middle of Ashford Park, but is also close to Historic Brookhaven.
The new restaurant/bar, Verde Taqueria, recently opened to great crowds. Also in Village Place Brookhaven is a unique collection of boutiques, small retail establishments and service providers, including Davonshire (a wonderful, imaginative gift and housewares store), The Library Coffee Company (a nice alternative to Starbucks, The Library also serves light food), Allure Boutique, The Mercantile and Ten-10, a personal-care salon.
