An anonymous Citizen sent us more evidence today that Trader Joe’s is coming to The Avenue in Peachtree City in the former Books-a-Million spot.

Besides the unauthorized affirmation we got from an employee at The Avenue yesterday, today The Citizen was sent a copy of the building permit for the renovations underway at the former Books-a-Million

Permit number PCA25-0007 was approved on 2/28/25 and is for “Shell Renovations (Interior & Exterior) of Existing Retail Structure for Future Grocery Tenant.” That permit is pictured with this article.
