A popular Buckhead restaurant which closed after developers announced plans to transform the property on which it sat will soon open for business in Midtown with a new name.

What Now Atlanta reports that the Buckhead Bottle Bar & Bistro will become “Time Restaurant & Lounge,” and will set up shop at the former site of musician Ludacris’ restaurant Straits at 793 Juniper St.

According to the Atlanta Business Chronicle, the move was prompted by the $3 million purchase of the Buckhead Bottle Bar & Bistro property at 268 East Paces Ferry Rd. by The Loudermilk Companies in August, 2013. The ABC reports that the Loudermilk Companies plans to redevelop the site into “3111 Peachtree Atlanta,” containing office and retail space.

Curbed Atlanta reports that Bottle Bar and Bistro’s neighbor in Buckhead, Al’s Café Agora, was also forced to relocate due to the pending development. Al’s found a new site in the Buckhead Village, Curbed says.
