Lee + White, the adaptive-reuse development in Atlanta’s West End, will soon be home to Ogle School, a 15,839-square-foot cosmetology and esthetics school.
This will be Ogle School’s 10th location and its first in Georgia, adding to its existing presence in Dallas, Houston and San Antonio.
“We are incredibly excited to expand Ogle School into the vibrant and dynamic Atlanta market,” Ogle School CEO John Blair said in a news release. “After extensive research, we found that Atlanta, with its rich cultural heritage and thriving community, is the perfect place for our first location outside of Texas.”
Ogle School offers cosmetology and esthetics programs that emphasize salon-modeled, student-centered training and career development. The new Atlanta campus will occupy a second-floor space at the front of the 929 Building, a refurbished warehouse with high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows.
Classes are set to begin in January 2025.
Porter Henritze and Melanie Garlock of Cushman & Wakefield completed the lease with Ogle School on behalf of ownership. Del Early of Carter Hill Commercial Real Estate Advisors represented Ogle School.
The mixed-use Lee + White development, owned by Ackerman & Co. and MDH Partners, is a growing hub of business and entertainment encompassing 442,562 square feet. The current phase of redevelopment features a food hall, more than 200,000 square feet of offices, new retail space, and the “Great Lawn” central gathering and event space.
