Situated in The Irwin Street Market, Lingering Shade Lounge would be part of a planned overhaul of the development.

Atlantans strolling the Beltline could soon have another option for a cold brew on a hot Atlanta day.

Lewis Jefferies, a Certified Public Account and owner at The Jefferies Group, is moving forward with plans to open Lingering Shade Lounge, a Beltline-adjacent beer garden situated in The Irwin Street Market.

Lingering Shade Lounge, first announced mid-2016 as part of an overhaul of Irwin Street, is amidst the latest rounds of permitting with City of Atlanta.

Jefferies Monday filed a commercial alteration permit to buildout Lingering Shade Lounge in a 3,503-square-foot space with an additional 1,000-square-foot deck “literally steps from the Beltline,” according to the project’s Facebook page.

An estimated $150,000 is expected to alter existing space into Lingering Shade Lounge, according to the official documents.

At Lingering Shade Lounge, expect at least “10 local craft brews on tap, rotating as available” and a “refined, low-key bar.”
