  1. Is Toro’s favorite place to shop still ‘online’ as he mentioned in an AJC profile about a year ago?

  2. I am also wondering where the store will be located. Most of the vacant store areas at Atlantic Station appear to be much smaller than an Athleta store would be.

  3. Isn’t the American Eagle space still empty? I was just there but I can’t remember. Also they could take the space left by City sports.

  4. My guess is it takes over City Sports’ old spot. The real question is what takes over the old Fox Sports Grill location. Doesn’t Sweetwater have a restaurant concept? I wouldn’t mind a Mellow Mushroom so they can shutter California Pizza Kitchen and have yet another local brand.

  5. I saw that Guess was closed and there is a building permit for an interior re-do. I think the old Nine West space is too small. I didn’t walk down to the former City Sports space so I can’t say if there’s a building permit or better indication of pending occupancy there.
