Swanky's Moving Forward, Pier Closed

Swanky's Taco Shop on Poplar near Colonial is moving forward with construction. It was initially believed that Swanky's would open in this location in the fall. Today, crews were working on what appears to a patio addition to the space former occupied by Atlanta Bread Company.

The Pier has closed its Downtown location. To be honest, who knew that this place was still open. The only time you ever see people at the Pier is during Downtown's crawfish festival. The space needs some serious updates before a new tenant considers moving in. Should be interesting to see if anyone is will to take a risk and open a new restaurant or club in this space.
