"For Banks, the closure of Atomic was not just a boon for business, it was an opportunity to expand. In the wake of Atomic's closure, Banks hastily opened up a third location next to Atomic's former flagship location at Southern Avenue and Country Club Drive in Mesa to fill the void. That location could become permanent as Banks looks into expanding his chain to meet the new demand. Banks said he intends to have a permanent location in Mesa regardless of whether it is in the current spot."
