A number of permit and zoning applications that would normally have been presented before the Lawrenceville city council were tabled this week due to the challenges of holding a public hearing during virtual meetings. One application, for a craft distillery, was tabled until May 20.
Third Rail Distillers, Inc., intends to produce high-quality craft distilled spirits with a tasting room in the Depot Area along North Clayton Street at its intersection with Seaboard Airline Rail Road.
The property is currently developed with a concrete block storage building, driveway and loading dock. The proposed site plan includes a 50-foot tall building and an additional 1,520 square feet of floor area, in addition to the existing 3,240 square foot building. The plans also propose the addition of an exterior patio wrapping around the main front entry connecting to an existing patio (loading dock) along the south side of the building. A porch would be added to the rear of the building along the western property line adjacent to the railroad right-of-way. Part of the plan includes the installation of a grain silo that would be used as a monument sign.
