The hospitality company behind the renovation of one of Inman Park’s oldest surviving buildings has received an award.
Painted Park was honored with a Historic Renovation Award at the Georgia Design Awards last week. The two-story “eatertainment” concept comes from Painted Hospitality’s Justin Amick and William Stallworth (The Painted Pin, Painted Duck, and Painted Pickle).
Painted Hospitality transformed the 1890 Factory Terminal building along North Highland, which was originally the headquarters of the Atlanta Pipe and Foundry Company, into a vibrant, multi-use drinking and dining destination just steps from the Eastside Beltline in Inman Park.

The 5,000-square-foot Italianate structure was first restored in 2009 by acclaimed restaurateur Bob Amick for his company’s restaurant, Parish. His son, Justin Amick, the CEO and President of Painted Hospitality, reactivated the building as a recreational venue, green space, and private events spot in 2024.
The renovation preserved and repaired original architectural elements, including tin ceilings, brick walls, copper piping, concrete floors, Vermont slate roofing, and expansive windows with original rosette moldings, according to a press release.
New additions include a 1,200-square-foot solarium overlooking the Beltline, two indoor bars, a full kitchen, two patios, a floating DJ booth, dance floor, vintage gaming parlor, and outdoor spaces with fire pits, lawn games, a gazebo bar, and an underground tunnel connecting Painted Park to the green space.
Justin Amick said the project is deeply personal to him.
“It’s a tribute to my father’s legacy, to Atlanta’s architectural soul, and to the idea that restoration can be playful, beautiful, and community-driven,” he said. “Connecting this historic building to the Beltline for the first time is like connecting the beach to the ocean—it changes everything.”
