The new facility will take a portion of the Midtown home furnishings store early 2018.
Piedmont Healthcare has plans to resuscitate the second floor portion of space in Midtown previously occupied by CB2 into a new primary care office.
CB2 closed the store – its lone Atlanta outpost – December 13, 2015.
Several permit applications this month were filed with City of Atlanta to begin converting 8,217-square-foot of the space, at 1080 Peachtree Street NE, into the Piedmont Healthcare primary care facility.
Amanda Bartlett, a company spokesperson, confirmed the news in an email to What Now Atlanta Monday.
“Piedmont will be opening a new primary care office with onsite lab at that location,” Bartlett said.
“It will have extended hours and is slated to open early 2018.”
An estimated $616,285 could be spent altering the interior of the space for the new Piedmont Healthcare facility, according to the most recent permit application, filed June 7.
As of late, several restaurant and retail spaces throughout Atlanta are being repurposed as healthcare facilities.
Harken Health is building out a facility in Midtown, replacing Gatsby’s Social Club and Dessert Lounge, and Emory Healthcare transformed Justin’s restaurant into a primary care facility late-2016.

As a resident in the building, we’ve been told Piedmont is only taking over the second floor of the space. The ground floor will still be empty.
JJ, thanks for the note. I’ve reached out to Piedmont Healthcare for clarification ~ Caleb
JJ, Piedmont Healthcare responded. The facility will only occupy the second floor of the space. We’ve updated the article to reflect the new information. Thanks! ~ CJS
If they are only doing the 2nd floor they sure are doing a lot of reno on the 1st floor where the store was.
