The vacant building that once housed the notorious Gold Club could again become a nightclub – providing nearby homeowners drop their opposition.

Tonight – as I write this, in fact – Buckhead’s Neighborhood Planning Unit B is considering a proposal by a group calling itself F & C Buckhead Investments to reopen the property at 2416 Piedmont Road as a new nightclub.

Jeff Shell, the NPU chairman, says this will be the applicants’ second appearance. They came last month before the NPU, but had little information to offer about the type of nightclub they wanted, landscaping plans, floor plans, management team, etc.

“Lots of our members felt they weren’t very well prepared,” Shell says. “People had concerns just based on the history of the property.”
