Fairburn will celebrate a milestone Saturday with the reopening of two major downtown businesses destroyed in a fire two years ago. The fire, which ravaged the city's downtown, destroyed three buildings and damaged two others.

Mayor Mario Avery, the City Council and appointed officials will be on hand for the ceremony to mark the reopening of Oz Pizza and Fairburn Antique Mall at 10:30 a.m. Saturday at 5 SW Broad Street.

City officials say they hope this will be the first steps in creating a vibrant downtown environment which will become the centerpiece for future growth.
