Owner Chip Ney and Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PRLog (Press Release) –
Jul 02, 2008 – The Depot won Best Adaptive Use Award by Atlanta's Urban Design Commission at its annual Awards of Excellence ceremony. The restaurant was originally a brick rail center with red tile roof that sat vacant for over fifty years before architect William Jay George of G6 Design and interior designer Bill Peace of Peace Design meticulously restored it. In keeping with the historical character and many architectural details, some notable design elements include the restored large sliding cargo/bay doors, original brick tiles, an expanded platform used for deck dining as well as old railroad tracks placed as foot rests at the rich wood bar that spans the length of the dining room.
"We worked hard to bring this incredible building back to life and preserve a historic element of Atlanta," said Depot partner Chip Ney after receiving the award from Mayor Shirley Franklin. "It is an honor to receive such a prestigious award." Nightcap Food & Spirits, LLC owns The Depot along with other restaurants including Fontaine's, Vickery's Bar & Grill, Highland Tap and Steamhouse Lounge in Atlanta and Vickery's Bar & Grill and Gene's Haufbrau in Charleston, SC.
