Eyewear boutique is coming to Downtown this Spring.
The Downtown neighborhood will gain options for fashionable glasses this spring.
Chris Lee has filed plans to open Vintage Eyes, an eyewear store at 31 Baker Street NW in the Downtown Neighborhood.
The boutique will sell one-of-a-kind vintage frames from the 70s, 80s, and other decades past, as well as “vintage-inspired” glasses.
told What Now Atlanta (WNA) Monday that he is optimistic about the “change” that has been happening downtown, and believes that there is a market for vintage eye accessories in Atlanta: “vintage things are popular because people want to look different now.”
The address is a hotbed for eyewear stores – It was formerly occupied by Atlanta’s Social Eyes, an optical goods retailer and glasses repair service shop.
According to Lee, Vintage Eyes will sell goods at affordable prices, with prices ranging between $5 to $500. He hopes to be open on March first.
Lee is also the owner of Lee’s Fashion Boutique on Auburn Avenue, discount store selling items by Calvin Klein, Dickies, Dockers and more, with nothing over ten dollars.
