Birmingham’s Summit shopping center has 4 new tenants coming

The Summit is getting a major boost. Birmingham’s premier shopping destination officially confirmed Thursday that four new tenants are set to join the lineup in the coming months, signaling continued growth for the center as it approaches its 30-year anniversary.

New flavors and fashion hitting the scene

Local favorite Sons Pops is already delighting shoppers with its handcrafted, gourmet frozen treats. You can find them open daily at the overlook located between Chuy’s and Abercrombie & Fitch. Joining the food scene this winter is Choolaah Indian BBQ. This fast-casual spot, known for its locations in Ohio and Pennsylvania, will bring a menu packed with bowls, wraps, street food, and craft beverages—including plenty of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options.

Fashion enthusiasts have plenty to look forward to as well. As previously reported by 205focus.com, the vintage-inspired brand LoveShackFancy is set to open its first Alabama location this summer. The global lifestyle brand will occupy roughly 2,000 square feet near Madewell. Additionally, the Scottsdale-based Rancher Hat Bar has already opened its doors this month, offering a unique, customizable hat experience near Vuori.

A busy year of growth

The Summit’s expansion doesn't stop there. Earlier this year, BeautySpace brought its high-performance skincare and beauty products to Belk. The retail roster is slated to grow even more this summer with the arrival of Aritzia and PopUp Bagel, along with the relocation of LOFT.

“The Summit’s continued leasing momentum speaks to the long-term strength and relevance of The Summit within the Birmingham market,” said Carver Boynton-Pearson, director of property management for The Summit. “As the property approaches its 30-year anniversary next year, the addition of nationally recognized brands continues to reinforce The Summit’s role as both a regional shopping destination and a contributor to the economic growth and evolution of Birmingham.”
