Burnt Hickory Village - a New “Mini-West Cobb Avenues” style boutique shops just west of McDonalds on Whitlock Avenue

Apr 4th, 2006 | By admin | Category: Local Restaurants, Marietta Real Estate, Marietta Square, Redevelopment

Today, we talked to one of the developers of the new retail development that is going up just west of the McDonald’s on Whitlock Avenue. A short description of the project can be summed up as “A mini version of the West Cobb Avenues”. The new development will be home to upscale boutique shops and restaurants. There is approximately 55,000 square feet of retail space available in varying sizes depending on the needs of each business.

A few well known Marietta businesses such as Gabriel’s Desserts Bakery/Cafe and the Coldwell Banker Brokerage (currently on Whitlock Avenue) will also be relocating to this new space. The old Coldwell Banker Brokerage will be going up for sale once the transition is complete.

The most unique discovery we made was there will be a trendy, new “Do-it-yourself Dog Washing” shop. Gone are the days of old when there was just a laundry mat to wash your clothes. What would our grandmothers think? Only in 2006 can you stop for a delectable pastry from Gabriel’s, do a little shopping…only to be followed by a stop to wash your dog all in the same upscale shopping center.

We are excited to keep our eye on this upscale development in Marietta as new merchants continue to commit to the spaces available. We will update you as we receive any new information from the developers. If you are a business and would like to have more information about the retail space, please contact Holli Edie at 404.303.1600.

  1. Thanks for the update on the property. We have been watching this for months wondering what would be coming in and no one seemed to have any info. Do you have the scoop on the buildings behind the center? Are they offices or residences?
    Keep up the good work of keeping us “in the know”!

  2. [...] This intersection is just left of the new “Burnt Hickory Village” development on Whitlock. I am concerned about the intersection at the corner of Burnt Hickory and Whitlock. It is dangerous. The guard rail has been knocked down and it is over grown with weeds. It has huge pot holes on the left side of Burst Hickory. I have contacted the Georgia DOT but they have not responded to my complaints. Anyone else have any suggestions????? [...]

  3. Thanks for the nice mention back in April.

    Our name is Mom& Pups. We are the DIY Dog Wash and we opened last week. Besides the dog wash we also have lots of fun pet stuff, tasty treats, healthy pet food, and even some bird feeding supplies. Soon we will also offer dog grooming.

    We invite you all to stop in and take a look. Bring your pet!
