The Forest Acres City Council welcomed Skin and Browse Redefined to the city's Beltline Boulevard corridor in late January.
Skin and Brows ReDefined is the fourth new business to open along Beltline Boulevard since the announcement of the mall's redevelopment. Over the past 12 months, the city has welcomed his 7Brew Coffee, Throwback Outpost, and Cricket Newman Designs, which relocated from Columbia to Forest Acres.
“We are excited to highlight the rapid revitalization growth along the Beltline, which will only accelerate as mall redevelopment gets into full swing,” said Forest Acres Mayor Thomas Andrews. he said. “From great dining options to service professionals like Redefining Skin and Brows, our city's Beltline and Forest Corridor is a rare opportunity to meet a diverse and highly desirable market segment. We know there's never been a better time to do business in the City of Forest Acres.”
A new Slim Chicken restaurant currently under construction in the former Golden Chick at 2089 Beltline Blvd. is still in the planning stages. Prisma Health Urgent Care, located next to 7Brew, is also scheduled to open this year.
The city expects details of the demolition schedule for the former mall to be announced in the coming weeks.
