Clothing retailer shutters location after 8 years
Midtown’s Sage Clothing boutique has closed after eight years in business.
Located at 1745 Peachtree Street in the Brookwood Place Shopping Center, owner Shannon Kitchens confirmed the clothing store’s last day was Tuesday, Feb. 22.
Kitchens attributes their closure to the predetermined desire to relocate the clothing store’s Midtown location when the lease was up for renewal.
“It’s not like we’re closing. Our lease is just up,” said Kitchens.
Borders Bookstore recently closed at Brookwood Place and is one of the reasons Sage decided against renewing their lease, according to Kitchens.
“With Borders closing and with the current state of the Brookwood Place Shopping Center, it didn’t make sense to renew our lease.”
With another location in Buckhead just “three miles up the road,” Kitchen told What Now Atlanta she hopes to open a new Midtown location this fall, “further apart from the Buckhead location.”
The new location will be located on “Peachtree Street bewteen 10th and 17th.”
Sage Clothing has three other locations: East Cobb, Buckhead and Forsyth.
