The newly-named project will transform the historic former Myers Carpet building into a retail-anchored commercial destination connected to the Atlanta Beltline in the Berkeley Park neighborhood.

SRS Real Estate Partners’ Brittany McCall is leading retail leasing for the project. Paul Reese of Capital Real Estate Group is leading office leasing, according to a press release.

Renovations began in August 2026 and are expected to be completed in mid-2027. The renovated building will include approximately 21,400 square feet of commercial space, including approximately 17,400 square feet for retail, food and beverage and showroom uses, as well as approximately 4,000 square feet of creative office space.

A covered breezeway will bisect the building, creating a common area with direct access to the Beltline and the property’s commercial storefronts.

The property’s new brand identity is anchored by the iconic silo along Northside Drive, which has been transformed into The Berkeley’s visual mark in partnership with Monday Night Brewing, who opened its popular The Grove location on-site last year.

“The Berkeley is a nod to the Berkeley Park neighborhood we are proud to be part of,” Andy Johns, Principal with The Atlantic Companies, said in the release. “Together with The Grove and amplified by the Beltline, The Berkeley will offer an approachable mix of retail concepts that reflects the character of this eclectic community and gives visitors a sense of discovery.”

The project team includes Gensler as architect, Kimley-Horn as civil engineer, Peter Constructive as general contractor, Westbridge as development consultant, and Good Company as branding consultant.
