When Regency Centers rebranded the center, we knew it needed something that was a more accurate reflection of the great communities that surrounded it. The City of Brookhaven—specifically councilman Joe Gebbia and recently elected Mayor Williams—were instrumental in making this vision a reality." > "The Fresh Market was also crucial in bringing about this transformation to the updated center and its merchandising mix. I can’t thank the merchants of this center enough for bearing with us through this process to bring a new spark to this great site; they are the most important part of our business. We are proud to welcome The Fresh Market to Brighten Park, and its further expansion as a member of the Regency family." Brighten Park (previously Loehmann's Plaza) is a 137,812 sq. ft. shopping center located in Atlanta, GA and is currently undergoing a substantial renovation.
