The permits for the demolition of the former Belk department store and a second smaller building at Roosevelt Square have been approved by the city, paving the way for the shopping center’s third redevelopment to begin.
The buildings, located at 4535 Roosevelt Boulevard and 4397 Roosevelt Boulevard, will cost about $300,000 to demolish, according to the permits.
Atlanta-based Dewberry Capital Corp., the shopping center’s owner, confirmed redevelopment plans in January. An environmental resource permit approved in June allows for the redevelopment of five acres, demolition of the Belk store and some construction.
