Project
Description

Emory Point’s mixed-use development in Atlanta set the stage for Schoolhouse Brewery’s second location, a project brought to life by Cornerstone through comprehensive preconstruction and construction services. Drawing on the successful partnership from the brewery’s first location, Cornerstone worked closely with the design team and brewery owners to meet budget constraints while addressing the technical challenges of installing substantial upgrades. This collaboration ensured the space could accommodate the brewery’s equipment, while also preserving the aesthetic appeal the owners envisioned. Through careful coordination between construction phases and equipment installation and by using interior commercial contracting skills Cornerstone ensured the project was completed on time, delivering the perfect environment for Schoolhouse Brewery’s operations and customers alike.

The transformation involved converting an existing bar and restaurant space into a fully operational brewery, complete with a compact brewing production area where the former kitchen once stood. Cornerstone meticulously oversaw critical MEP system upgrades to support the brewery’s specialized needs, including plumbing and electrical enhancements for the brewing equipment. The installation of modern LED lighting fixtures was designed to create the perfect ambiance, complementing the brewery’s unique “Gymnasium” theme. This theme features an eclectic collection of sports memorabilia, aligning perfectly with Schoolhouse Brewery’s “where education meets recess” tagline, making it a memorable, interactive environment for beer lovers. Cornerstone also ensured that the design elements blended seamlessly with the functional needs of the brewery, from the layout of the multiple bars and tasting areas to the brewing station itself.

This project exemplifies Cornerstone’s ability to merge the technical complexities of brewery buildouts with creative commercial interiors. Schoolhouse Brewery’s new location is a perfect balance of functional brewing operations and a nostalgic, sports-themed atmosphere. The space not only supports the brewery’s production needs but also provides an inviting, dynamic experience for patrons, offering them an unforgettable craft beer experience that’s sure to keep them coming back for more.

Let's build together.
