Cheshire Bridge Road is a mainly north–south thoroughfare of Atlanta, Georgia, USA traversing the Morningside-Lenox Park and Lindridge-Martin Manor neighborhoods from Piedmont Avenue to Buford Highway just north of Interstate 85.
[4][5] In 2005, the Atlanta City Council banned new adult businesses from opening on Cheshire Bridge Road but existing ones were allowed to stay.
[6] However, new high-density residential developments have become common in recent years and some existing businesses and nightclubs have closed or relocated.
[4][5] In 2013, councilman Alex Wan introduced legislation, supported by neighborhood associations and NPU F,[8] to remove existing adult businesses from Cheshire Bridge by 2018, but this was not passed, opposed by a mix of gays, strippers and Atlanta's real estate interests – including Scott Selig.
However, some area business owners and Atlanta residents have organized to preserve the legacy of Cheshire Bridge Road.
