Protected bike lanes in works for busy section of Midtown

Protected bike lanes in works for busy section of Midtown

A street overhaul that could provide Atlantans safer passage between two bustling commercial districts—and numerous points between—has entered the pipeline at the state level.
As part of a broader road-improvement effort, the Georgia Department of Transportation is planning to remake a section of 14th Street (State Route 9) with a two-way cycle track, pedestrian improvements, and lane reconfigurations between the doorstep of The Interlock district in West Midtown and the core of Midtown’s business district.
Buffered by concrete wheel stops and other safety measures, the 1.1-mile bike track would span between Northside Drive in the west, through Home Park, and over the 14th Street bridge, as ThreadATL first pointed out.
At West Peachtree Street, the cycle track would terminate near Midtown’s Whole Foods Market and link with bike lanes planned to be built by the Atlanta Department of Transportation, per GDOT.
The changes would come as part of a $4 million project to mill, resurface, and install safety upgrades on nearly six miles of state routes throughout the city, from West Midtown to Buckhead.
All aspects of the work are currently in conceptual phases.
On 14th Street, the two-way cycle track would be installed on the north side of the corridor, with a goal of cutting down on the frequency and severity of crashes and providing multimodal infrastructure. The stretch of 14th Street in question averages two pedestrian crashes and one documented bicyclist crash per year, in addition to 16 left-turn crashes.
Plans call for one westbound lane to be reallocated for the cycle track, while a left turn lane will be implemented on another lane throughout most of the route.
According to GDOT’s estimates, the changes would reduce all crashes on the section of 14th Street in question by nearly 50 percent. Additional safety measures would include Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons at crossings for people on foot and bike.
Additionally, the left turn lanes “would reduce left turn crashes, make it easier for drivers to turn left, and could improve traffic flow by reducing weaving,” according to a GDOT project summary.
GDOT is seeking public feedback on the project until Feb. 14, either online or by mailing in a printable form. (Both can be found here.)
According to GDOT officials, all feedback will be assessed, and if no major changes are proposed, the project will advance into right-of-way acquisition and final design phases. No timeline for construction has been finalized.
The 14th Street bridge itself was replaced in 2010, following three years of construction.
A few blocks south, a similar conversion of the 10th Street bridge into a “safe, beautiful, multimodal gateway” between Georgia Tech and central Midtown is also in the works. That schedule calls for finishing construction in 2026, per Midtown Alliance.

From the parking decks to one of its larger entertainment spaces, Atlantic Station is putting a fresh foot forward as it prepares to mark its 20th anniversary in 2025.
The 138-acre district today announced five new food, entertainment, and services concepts that have opened at Atlantic Station or are scheduled to debut soon. Collectively the businesses bring diversity and “a fresh flair, offering guests new retail experiences that support the needs of the community,” reads an announcement.
After opening in 2005, Atlantic Station has grown to include nearly 8 million square feet of mixed-use development, including more than 523,000 square feet for retail, restaurants, and entertainment, plus two hotels, hundreds of apartments and condos, and roughly two million square feet of offices.
“We’re always introducing new and exciting experiences to keep our neighborhood vibrant and engaging,” noted Giovanni Silva, Atlantic Station’s general property manager, in today’s announcement.
The five additions are summarized below, beginning with those that have opened:
…
Dirty Horse Paint Protection and Auto Detailing
Location: Parking Level P3
The car care company opened in early December and offers Atlantic Station visitors “a full suite of services, from meticulous detailing to ceramic coatings, vinyl wraps, and paint protection films,” per district reps.
Hours: 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday; and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
…
Yonutz
Location: 232 19th St. NW, Suite 7110; now open
The first Georgia location of this “viral sensation” offers what’s called the “SMASHED™ Donut and Yonutz SMASHED™ Shake” that combines donuts and ice cream, plus mini donuts, gourmet ice cream, and gluten-friendly options.
Hours: 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Thursday; 8 a.m. to 12 a.m., Friday and Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., Sunday.
…
Bowlero = Lucky Strike Entertainment
Location: 261 19th St.
Scheduled for the first quarter of 2025, the Bowlero space previously occupied by sports and restaurant concepts will be rebranding to Lucky Strike Entertainment. The move “promises to bring a fresh, vibrant energy to Atlantic Station, ensuring unforgettable experiences for visitors of all ages,” per district reps.
…
Candleporium Fragrance House
Location: 232 19th St. NW, Suite 7130
Set to open this month near Lush Nail Bar, the dual-concept will feature a retail space and custom candle-making bar. Reads the official description: “The meticulously curated retail area showcases a selection of premium candles from both local and national high-end brands, while the candle-making process is fun, intimate, therapeutic, and unique to each guest experience.”
Hours: 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Saturday; and 12 p.m. to 6 p.m., Sunday.
…
Munster Cravings
Location: Beside Atlantic Grill
Set to open in the first quarter of 2025, this made-from-scratch cookie concept with locations at Chattahoochee Food Works and in Tucker will bring “freshly baked-to-order treats like peanut butter and jelly, peach cobbler, butter waffle, and cinnamon roll, alongside timeless favorites such as chocolate chip and snickerdoodle,” along with seasonal flavors and vegan options.

Sneak peek: Dante’s Down the Hatch reborn as MJQ nightclub

Sneak peek: Dante’s Down the Hatch reborn as MJQ nightclub
Josh Green

The fondue and crocodiles might be history, but Underground Atlanta’s iconic former Dante’s Down the Hatch space has finally got its groove back.
Closed to the public for more than 25 years, the old restaurant and jazz club fondly remembered by so many longtime Atlantans has new life as MJQ Concourse, another storied local nightlife venue.
With its devout following, seductive lighting, and famed, thumping sound system, MJQ is poised to become the beating heart of Underground’s revitalization, as a recent media preview event proved. (MJQ’s official grand opening at Underground is Jan. 29, postponed by recent weather events; the venue’s last night on Ponce de Leon Avenue, where it’s operated for nearly 30 years, is Saturday.)
The design for MJQ’s new digs was inspired by sci-fi and cyberpunk aesthetics and incorporates some of Dante’s elements, including the old Dante’s ship and crocodile pit. The redo is described as “an immersive atmosphere inspired by Blade Runner and Mad Max, creating a futuristic, sci-fi ambiance” with “hidden nooks for mingling and relaxation.”
Other components will include an arcade area and “snack corner” that pays homage to the diverse food offerings of Buford Highway, per project leaders.
Dante’s opened in the early 1970s and shuttered in 1999 as Underground’s post-Olympics slide took hold.
Today, MJQ joins Underground’s ongoing live-work-play revitalization and a broader entertainment portfolio that includes The Masquerade and venues such as Future. Collectively, those tenants hosted more than 3,000 shows last year alone, according to the property’s owners. The goal is to eventually create a “24-hour downtown Atlanta,” as Shaneel Lalani, CEO of Underground’s owner, Lalani Ventures, recently put it.
Head up to the gallery for a sneak-peek tour of the former Dante’s space, now reborn as MJQ.

Other components will include an arcade area and “snack corner” that pays homage to the diverse food offerings of Buford Highway, per project leaders.

Dante’s opened in the early 1970s and shuttered in 1999 as Underground’s post-Olympics slide took hold.
Today, MJQ joins Underground’s ongoing live-work-play revitalization and a broader entertainment portfolio that includes The Masquerade and venues such as Future. Collectively, those tenants hosted more than 3,000 shows last year alone, according to the property’s owners. The goal is to eventually create a “24-hour downtown Atlanta,” as Shaneel Lalani, CEO of Underground’s owner, Lalani Ventures, recently put it.

Sneak peek: Dante’s Down the Hatch reborn as MJQ nightclub
Josh Green
Tue, 01/21/2025 – 10:35
The fondue and crocodiles might be history, but Underground Atlanta’s iconic former Dante’s Down the Hatch space has finally got its groove back.
Closed to the public for more than 25 years, the old restaurant and jazz club fondly remembered by so many longtime Atlantans has new life as MJQ Concourse, another storied local nightlife venue.
With its devout following, seductive lighting, and famed, thumping sound system, MJQ is poised to become the beating heart of Underground’s revitalization, as a recent media preview event proved. (MJQ’s official grand opening at Underground is Jan. 29, postponed by recent weather events; the venue’s last night on Ponce de Leon Avenue, where it’s operated for nearly 30 years, is Saturday.)
