Now that the construction is cleared away and the structures are complete, the Lofts at College Hill on Hardeman Avenue are focusing on building community through events to get residents more acquainted with downtown, the new living space, and each other.
For example, on Aug. 25 the Lofts at College Hill hosted a “Beer and Brats” mixer so people could get to know their neighbors. Nearly 50 people showed up to the event and were excited to get to know one another, said Allie Lovett, student housing manager for the Lofts.
“It’s going really well,” Lovett said. “I think it’s a really nice mix… people want to meet their neighbors and it’s all happening organically.”
On Sept. 15, the Lofts at College Hill will host a special morning yoga session on the top floor exclusively for residents from 8-9 a.m.
Down below, the Lofts will feature new restaurants on the ground level that are set to open in October. These include The Brick and Boba Mocha.
The Brick, an established and popular restaurant based in Milledgeville for more than 20 years, will be over 5,200 square feet and have an outdoor patio. The restaurant will open for lunch and have the capacity to seat over 200 people, featuring a full bar and live music. It will be open until 2 a.m. on weekends and until midnight during the week.
Boba Mocha, a speciality coffee, tea and frozen yogurt shop, will join The Brick on the bottom floor retail level of the The Lofts. Lovett said that the frozen yogurt eatery has “exciting” plans to host wine nights for people to mingle.
