A proposal has been submitted for two buildings on 12th St. and Piedmont Ave. The Midtown Development Review Committee has received the proposal and plans to discuss the same in a meeting. The proposal includes several changes to the mixed-use redevelopment site.
Midtown Development Review Committee Receives a Proposal for the Adaptive Reuse Site
The Midtown Development Review Committee has received a new application for the adaptive reuse development site on Piedmont Avenue. Known as 12th & Everything, the corner property is zoned SPI-17, allowing for a mix of restaurant, retail, or mixed-use development. The latest plans focus on converting the site into a neighborhood restaurant destination.
Applicant Lee Perlis of Perlis Realty & Investments submitted the proposal. The proposal will be reviewed on January 13, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. The meeting will take place at 999 Peachtree Street in the second-floor conference center.
Key Details
The project is an adaptive reuse project of two buildings at 1084-1094 Piedmont Avenue. Located at the northwest corner of 12th Street, the two buildings exist on a single parcel. The south building spans 1,371 square feet, while the north building spans 1,485 square feet.
The changes proposed for the south building include a new double-entry door and extending the existing canopy along the full building frontage. The extended canopy would support covered outdoor dining for a breakfast-and-lunch concept.
The north building would undergo interior and exterior renovations in preparation for a future restaurant. Another part of the proposal includes a shared outdoor patio composed of pavers and planters, located between the buildings.
The proposal also mentions an existing driveway on 12th Street that leads to the loading/dumpster area in the rear. The plans also reference a previously approved parking exception, meaning no additional on-site parking is required.
The 12th & Everything project was initially proposed as a redevelopment of the two buildings, but was never completed. The property was later listed by JLL as an investment opportunity, setting the stage for the current revival effort.
