120 Newnan Street in Carrollton, Georgia is set to undergo a transformative revival into a cutting-edge brewery and vibrant community space named Dream City Brewing Co.. The esteemed construction firm Frank Co GC has been awarded the task of renovating the iconic historic building, ushering in a new era of craft brewing and community engagement.
Dream City Brewing aims to blend the rich history of the Carrollton square with modern architectural innovation. The redevelopment project will see extensive updates to the existing structure, along with the possible future addition of a second-floor rooftop. This brewery, which will also serve coffee and tea, is envisioned as a hub for social gatherings, events, and of course, enjoying finely crafted beverages in a unique setting.
The new concept is the shared dream of Joel, Katie, Chris and Ashley Pollard, who were all born and raised in West Georgia and live in Carrollton. Joel and Chris are brothers who have long dreamed of going into business together, along with their spouses. When Joel began homebrewing in 2020, the concept for Dream City Brewing Company began to take shape.
“We love the city of Carrollton, and we’re thrilled to bring something new to the downtown area,” remarked Joel Pollard, co-owner and brewmaster. “Carrollton is where we’re raising our families. We love the local art scene, the educational excellence that the University of West Georgia offers, and the strong independent restaurant scene. We’re looking forward to becoming a part of that.”
“We are thrilled to be part of this historic transformation into Dream City Brewing Co.,” said Eric Hansen, Director of Operations for Frank Co GC. “Our team is committed to preserving the heritage of this site while introducing state-of-the-art features that will elevate the brewing experience and create a destination that the community will cherish.”
The revitalization project will not only enhance the physical space but also contribute to the local economy by creating jobs and attracting visitors to the area. Dream City Brewing Company aims to become a cornerstone of the community, fostering a sense of pride and offering a dynamic venue where residents and visitors can come together to enjoy exceptional craft beer, coffee, and tea in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
The renovation of Dream City Brewing Company is expected to be completed by October 2024, with an opening celebration to follow once licensure is obtained.
