Construction start date-March 2009

^^I'm wanting to say this is what is replacing the Pendleton West building that bit the dust but can't remember for sure. I know we have heard something about this somewhere on one forum or another.


Does anyone mind posting TBAs for this week, I have not been able to get a copy the past few weeks and keep missing them.

Great shots! Look how massive McBee Station looks (and is, in reality) in that first shot.

Nice shots Furman, for some reason I always hate air shots of cities because it makes the density look way lower, than it really is, but I could be just me. :lol: Those are some nice shots Furman im very serious. Do you have any other shots? If you do please post them, thank you very very VERY much. The new Main and Broad st (where the courtyard by marriot is going) development looks very nice, is the crane down already or what.

That development that g-man posted on page 238 that looked nice to me is called The Villages at Town Creek...

Freeway Jim from Youtube is my favorite guy agian...He made a video of I-385 a while ago, now he made a video of I-85 from Greenville to Spartanburg.

very nice perspectives from those shots. :)

This is random, but I am a random type of guy. :lol:
If Greenville and Spartanburg County were to join the population would be over 700,000, the size would be 1601 sq mi (I dont like for counties to be that big/unless it's urban all over), the population density would be 437 (even less than greenville county density level today), and it would be the first county in the Carolina's that has 2 (1 small 1 medium sized) skylines. Also it would have the 3rd highest population, and would be the 1st county in the Carolina's to have 2 major or known cities. But that will never happen, Greenville County has a way better chance joining with Pickens County though.

Whats up StevenW...

^^ Just chillin! Y tu?

If Greenville and Spartanburg County were to join...it would be the first county in the Carolina's that has 2 (1 small 1 medium sized) skylines.

Guilford County contains the skylines of Greensboro and High Point.

Well...Greenville has another skyline planned along I-85, and I seriously believe that Midtown will become a busy bustling district soon. (10-20 years not that soon)

IQ does not change as you grow older. It is a Intelligence Quotient based on the fundamentals of intelligence. So don't flatter yourself, yours won't get any better. Also IQ does very little to better your life.

The President of Clemson University DIED, wow....

Everyone knows different things Infoman so its really hard to judge how smart a person is even when it comes to IQ test and such. I think the smartest people are some of the ones that have contributed their skills to helping build a better society and inventing new ways and methods for making difficult things easier. One could argue that this might end up making people lazier in the long run though.

Greenville, Spartanburg await stimulus details

By Scott Miller-GSA Business

Greenville could seek federal stimulus money to finally build a federal courthouse that Congress previously approved but never funded, said Mayor Knox White.

The problem is communities don’t know what projects will be eligible, he said. Congress also must address a debate over who should receive the money: states or the communities in the form of earmarks.

Upstate communities seem to be withholding their wish lists until answers surface.

Around the rest of the state, the requests are broad and growing. Columbia, for example, plans to seek stimulus funds to hire surveillance officers and purchase stun guns for its police department, according to a project list released by the U.S. Conference of Mayors released this week.

Including dollars for the airport, affordable housing, public safety, energy programs, streets, sewers and schools, Columbia is seeking up to $374 million. The projects would create a combined 3,513 jobs, the report said.

Charleston has a list of more than $1 billion in projects that would create 19,939 jobs. Projects stretch from airport expansions and new municipal buildings, to parks and a city gym.

The S.C. Department of Transportation created a preliminary list of $850 million worth of road projects around the state that are ready to go to contract.

Greenville and Spartanburg seem to be among the minority that hasn’t released a list of possibilities.

Neither community is part of the U.S. Conference of Mayors’ list of 11,391 infrastructure projects that could be started and completed within two years at a cost of $73 billion. The projects would create 847,641 jobs nationally.

“The agenda of the conference of mayors just isn’t usually our agenda,” White said.

In this case, White has a different view on the allocation of money.

The Conference of Mayors is asking that funding go directly to the entities responsible for the projects – cities, schools, counties, public housing offices and transportation authorities – as opposed to filtering it through the states.

“I think it’s a better approach to give the states the money,” Knox said, expressing the same view of the S.C. Department of Transportation. “I think it’d be a mistake to make an earmark. I think it would put priority on parochial projects rather than projects that have a broader impact… It should be projects that are beyond the scope of local communities.”

White suggested Greenville could pursue funds for the courthouse, which he estimated could cost more than $50 million, or a light rail system in conjunction with Greenville County that would connect downtown Greenville to the Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research.

The city hasn’t selected a site for the courthouse, however, and a detailed plan hasn’t been developed for the rail, meaning neither project is ready to go immediately, an expected requirement of the federal stimulus package.

“That would be a real problem because I think they want projects that are ready to go,” White said.

Other projects considered could include roads, sewers, bus systems, parks and others, he said.

“We always have projects,” White said. “We’ll make sure to have projects that meet the test. We just have to see what the test is first.”

Spartanburg Mayor Bill Barnett agreed, saying his city could pursue funds for parks, housing, transportation, the airport and other projects.

“I think we are all awaiting the details and the criteria for these potential opportunities,” he said. “At this moment, it’s a question of getting your ducks lined up and waiting to see the details.”

One of the many reasons I voted for Obama: http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2008-12-13-obama-transportation_N.htm Hey, if we can spend $500 billion in Iraq why can't we spend that same amount in this country on mass transit? I can't wait to hear Skyliner's response. :lol:

I posted that a month or two ago infoman. :lol:

Actually I believe I posted that a month or two ago. :lol:

Oh wait...you did. :lol: :hug: You mean we could actually get our LRT line now? :banana:

Why did they have to put us in such a tight situation for. We haven't built a high-rise in years (the federal courthouse will be 15 levles), but we could possibly build a light-rail system that could start up a high-rise boom around its stations, and most importantely downtown...and it would be nice to have a lightrail system, that would reduce the traffic. So I say we should go for the lightrail.

This massive project has a feel to it like the SandHill development off Clemson Rd. in Columbia. It's huge and has alot of condos/apartments, hotel rooms, office space and mega retail and entertainment venues. It's awesome but I live over 50 plus miles away from it.

http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r263/peacockdude/Picture069-2.jpg

It was supposed to be way bigger than that...With towers up to 15 level's, with the feel of Downtown Greenville (AWARD WINNING DOWNTOWN GREENVILLE)...

Um,... have you ever been to the Village at Sandhill? :?
It's huge and growing and growing!!! Check out this comment:

"When fully developed, the Village at Sandhill will contain over 3 million square feet of retail, residential, office, hotel, entertainment, and recreational facilities all located in one convenient setting. And, it was recently recognized by The International Council of Shopping Centers as one of the Top 9 Large Mixed Use Centers in the World in the trade organization's 2007 International Design and Development Awards. The Village at Sandhill was one of only four such centers in the United States to be included in this prestigous recognition program."

And Sandhill has some high-rises/mid-rises as well. :)

It shows some pix of Sandhill. Don't know how old they are though.

It's nice but I still don't think it would have competed with The Point, and it doesn't have high-rises, but a few mid-rises (to be a high-rise a building has to be at least 12 levels)...

Village at Sandhill is 1.4 million square feet. The Point was going to be 4.5 million square feet. Huge difference. I would compare VAS more with Magnolia Park, which will be a little over 1 million square feet when complete.

Speaking of Magnolia Park...

Village at Sandhill is 1.4 million square feet. The Point was going to be 4.5 million square feet. Huge difference. I would compare VAS more with Magnolia Park, which will be a little over 1 million square feet when complete.

VAS will be 3 million sq ft at full buildout. Still smaller than what the Point was going to be, but I just wanted to point (no pun intended) that out.

Thanks. :) And, VAS is a reality. And getting bigger. And isn't there another huge "Point-Like" village supposed to be built off of Clemson rd. and I-77 as well?

Well The Point is dead and is being rumored that a kalahari resort is being planned on the same site...

Thanks. :) And, VAS is a reality. And getting bigger. And isn't there another huge "Point-Like" village supposed to be built off of Clemson rd. and I-77 as well?

Killian's Crossing is dead. At least Greenville's proposed mixed use projects like Magnolia Park are actually in the city limits unlike Village at Sandhill which is located in the northeastern part of the county. Take that Columbia. :tongue: :lol:

The foundation of any great society is a strong education system. Where we stand today is a very special place - the International Center for Automotive Research - a tremendous symbol of America at its best. A $200 million public and private partnership with a long-term vision to create 20,000 jobs in 20 years - a new engine that will simultaneously drive education, technology, the economy, and set this region up for a prosperous future.

Of Course not all 20,000 jobs will be here, but I'm guessing over 2,000 will be here in the NEW GREENVILLE CARBON MOTORS HQ.

Never mind I believe there is 5,000 new Greenville Jobs because...

It has been estimated that Carbon Motors Corporation will create 10,000 new direct and indirect American jobs over a period of 10 years wherever we locate our operations - that is half of the target set for ICAR.

And? :dunno: They haven't picked Greenville yet.

I know that, but If your are a postive person, and say they will CHOOSE GREENVILLE, than you will feel good, and they could possibly move here!!!(My mom always says stuff like that to me) :lol:

I've reported you to the moderators.

The way you copy, your name shouldn't be "infoman", it should be "copyman".

MAN, WTF...Are you telling me that you signed online after weeks of not being online to tell me to stop? I aint saying sorry when you never post your pics up here, I know it's your choice.

Simply put: Stop copying and posting my pictures. You are not allowed.
I do not post pictures here because of the sophmoric atmosphere of this thread. You have no right to copy my photos from another site. Continue to do it and things will get ugly.....fast. Comprehend?

I aint saying sorry when you never post your pics up here, I know it's your choice.Do you know anything about Copyright and Intellectual Property laws? If not, I would strongly advise you to do the research or begin talking to a lawyer, because some people take impermissible copying of their work very seriously. Such people (victims) have every legitimate right to take legal action against you and your family for abusing these laws. I'm sure gsupstate has the source files for his own photos and is ready to confidently defend his rights.

sad but true.

Personally I like the "sophomoric" atmosphere over here. UP is UPTIGHT!!!

AIFA Awards Expansion Franchise to Greenville, South Carolina

I think if this team does good (stays in Greenville for at least 5 years, and there is high attendance) Greenville should seriously consider a major Bi-Lo Center renovation (OVER $100 million renovation/expansion)...I think they should take down a lot of those brick's and replace them with glass similar to Liberty 1&2 towers, they should put about 5 retail units on a outparcel that is extremely close to the arena, they should expand the garage, and build a tower on top of it.

I like your thinking! When the GATEWAY TOWER(s) breaks ground (attempts to :)), I'm sure we'll see some of this taking place... btw whats the word on the Gateway Development?

^^ I believe the developer has changed his mind and is now proposing to build a little cricket and a car wash and maybe, just maybe, an abc store. Don't hold your breath though. :D :lol:

Nah, I was thinking about something along the lines of a Platinum Plus... haha

^^ A space-needle with a Platinum Plus at the top!! :hilarious

Hey Guys, the left side of the building looks like a miniature of the hotel in Dubai.

I think we will see 2 or 3 of those begin construction and/or make progress. Magnolia Park will definitely start, and I also expect Washington Square to begin construction this year. We should also hear more about RiverPlace phase 3, at least in the form of some renderings.

I hope the Peacock Hotel & Spa will resume construction, although I am not holding my breath.

I do not expect to hear anything positive regarding Pinnacle on Main, Crescent Place, Century Crossing, or unfortunately the Gateway Site in 2009.

I'm pulling for the Gateway project! :yes:

BTW, I may make to the Greenville area sometime this weekend, I hope. :)

I was there too. :lol:

I actually found myself in your picture of the other side of the stadium. Obviously it'd be hard to tell, but there was a really tall guy in front of me and he was the only one not wearing orange... haha

You were there and you didn't tell me? :rant: What was with the section of Nebraska fans next to the Clemson band? :dunno: They were surrounded by Clemson fans. Must of felt weird. :lol: My section was a mixed bag of Nebraska and Clemson fans. I saw your post on urbanplanet about downtown Jacksonville lacking GvilleSC. I agree with you for the most part. They do have a really nice riverwalk along the St. Johns River. Other than that and Jacksonville Landing with the Hooters girls, it did leave a lot to be desired unfortunately. Also, that Budweiser tailgate party at the stadium was a waste of time in my opinion.

Did you guys have fun? :D

^^ absolutely! (despite the game's outcome)

I was actually sitting just on the other side of the band from the Nebraska block that was randomly placed there. I was literally 3 seats from the band. Needless to say, it was hard to hear too much afterward, plus with all the yelling, it was hard to hear people's hoarse voices anyway... but it was a good time.

Well, I went to Sea World in Orlando too so I had fun for the most part even though we lost. :yes: GvilleSC, which row letter were you? :D I want to find Waldo. :lol: I was in row G in upper deck in last section that was open on far right side looking from otherside of stadium.

Speaking of Sea World, I had to sit in traffic for over an hour just to go two miles to get into the place. Ten minutes after I got in they had to close the park because they ran out of parking. :nuts: Needless to say it was very crowded but it was still fun seeing Shamu and other stuff. :D

What's new infoman?

Nothin!!! This will be my first year on SSC, I rember when I first joined steven kept on posting ritalin behind everyone of my post's...I waz furious with him because I didn't know what it was, so when he told me I laughed and had no hard feeling's...Then you (g-man) came along saying that "here we go again another member just for the summer time" but you didn't know that I was planning to be permanet, so I was just having a flash-back...

Sorry g-man there is NO new development's proposed that I know of...but be optimistic there will be lot's of new development's in your area, my area, and BALTIMORE!!! :lol:

I do not expect to hear anything positive regarding Pinnacle on Main, Crescent Place, Century Crossing, or unfortunately the Gateway Site in 2009.Why do you "expect" Washington Square to begin construction this year?

What solid information provides enough evidence to indicate the retail-intensive Magnolia Park Town Center will defy the steadily declining economy by finally beginning construction? I realize the development consists of more than retailers, but it is highly unlikely that they will start building without great confidence in their ability to secure enough tenants. That will be especially difficult if the industry does not show improvement, and nearly impossible if it continues to weaken.

The rest are nothing more than wishes at this point, although I will say that at least the City is willing to invest in its share of the RiverPlace development so that it will make beneficial progress.

If Cousins Properties is unable to secure an office tenant for Washington Square then they'll start construction on the hotel portion in 2009 and hold off on the office building until they're able to secure a tenant. If they're not able to get a large office tenant within the next two years then they might make half the office building a hotel while leaving the rest of it as office space. Cousins Properties is not using bank financing to build Washington Square so they don't have to worry about getting a loan. Magnolia Park is on the January planning commission meeting agenda. Phase 1 starts construction in late January/early February according to the developers. The rest of it will start at a later date when the economy improves and Menin is able to secure enough tenants. Phase 1 completion is fall 2009 while the mixed use part is scheduled for completion in mid 2010. Expect news release regarding this project within the next month. Regarding the rest of Riverplace, i'll believe it when I see it.

My skepticism is fueled by your history of divulging rumor as fact, which too often results in a serious let down. I still need further evidence before belief in the reality of Washington Square will become possible. Until then, it is just another rendering to admire with hope. A similarly hesitant interest should be maintained regarding the Magnolia Park project. We have yet to see any real progress since the opening of Costco.

I used to post rumors and stupid crap that weren't true. I apologize for that and have quit doing it. What i'm telling you is what i've heard from the developers of both projects through emails. That's how I got those renderings of Washington Square. If these things that i've told you about Washington Square and Magnolia Park don't happen then it's not because i'm lying.

What kind of presintation was it...you get the joke g-man :LOL:

I get it. :lol:

:rofl: :lol: :hilarious :hahaha:
Awesome designs!!! :righton:

We want more. :banana: :cucumber: :pepper: :carrot:

Looks like Greenville is in the running for the US Bicycling Hall of Fame. Thanks Gsupstate. :okay:

Saw the ticket prices for the Force posted on urbanplanet. And you thought the Grrrowl had expensive tickets. :nuts:

Where would g-man/infoman be without UP? :|

At least you justified yourself yesterday by posting those nice ICAR photos, g-man/infoman.

Why do you keep thinking i'm infoman? :dunno: Why would I make a new username? I have no reason to. :nuts:

Can I please ask you a question skyliner, why do you always include me in every single thing. I promised myself a lot of things this year, and yeah I do go on urbanplanet to see some information but this year I'm not going to steal the information. So please STOP talking about last years infoman. I meant that with a lot of respect!!!

Good question infoman. I haven't done anything to the guy and yet he still treats me like a jerk. Yeah, I go off-topic sometimes but I also post photos, news, and other information relating to Greenville developments.

I don't think g-man and infoman are the same person...which is actually a bit scary, but anywho. LOL

I really like the way ICAR has shaped up. It's poised to be quite the success story over the next few years (not unlike RTP).

I don't think g-man and infoman are the same person...which is actually a bit scary, but anywho. LOL

:lol: Yeah, that would be scary and a trip and a doozie and well, um, uh... yeah, I guess that's all I have to say about that. :D
Besides, there can only be ONE Infoman! :righton:

Have you noticed skyliner that I post photos for Greenville, nc while g-man posts photots of greenville, sc? G-man I go off topic way more than you do. :lol: also I believe that your are great representative for greenville.

Also can anybody give me a location on it?

:stupid: :D :hug:

I noticed on the phase 1 site plan for Magnolia Park that's on the planning commission agenda, the road just to the north of Rooms To Go that will run east and west goes right through where the proposed Trader Joes and other retailers were supposed to go. I also noticed that there won't be an entrance/exit to the left of Rooms To Go along with a parking garage to the right of the retailer which there were going to be according to the site plan on Menin's website. Oops. This development is starting to turn into just another shopping center. Figures. :bash:

Check out the differences:

No round-a-bouts either. :ohno: I am so happy they decided to tear down Greenville Mall which was high-end mall to build a Costco, Rooms To Go, and a parking lot. And yes Skyliner I forgot to take my medicine today. :nuts:

Also, several restaurants got sick of waiting on Menin so they decided to go somewhere else. Chipotle and Ruth's Chris are examples of this. The city gave Menin $100 million to make it look nice. Now it looks like crap. Why didn't they just wait for the economy to improve instead of downscaling AGAIN?

Does Greenville have a Ruth's Chris yet? :?

Does Greenville have a Ruth's Chris yet? :?

They're hiring right now. It opens in February or March.

G-man I was beginning to think that this was starting to turn into a regular "SUBURBAN" style shopping center too...I do want it built but I can hold off for a while so we can get a better tenant line up, I want a shopping center that has a The Cheesecake Factory in it not a Ruby Tuesday, I want a shopping center with Class A office not anything else, AND I WANT A SHOPPING CENTER THAT HAS ROUNDABOUT'S, PARKING GARAGE'S, AND RESIDENTIAL UNIT'S ABOVE RETAIL. :ohno:

I'm sure it's still going to have all of that. :okay: If it doesn't then the developers will never hear the end of it from me. Ruby Tuesday's is oddly enough located right next door to this proposed shopping complex. :lol:

Also can anybody give me a location on it?I couldn't figure out which house you were seeing. $9,000 - $300? Anyway, check out this awesome Paris Mountain home (http://www.newwayproperties.net/public/listingSingle.do?listing.listingID=783488), which has been on the market for months now.:eek:

I've actually been by that house. It was built by the Marchant Company and is located next to Altamont Road. :okay: You can see it from the Furman bell tower. The planning commission has approved a large mixed use development for Fountain Inn: http://www.greenvilleonline.com/article/20090108/NEWS01/901080329&referrer=FRONTPAGECAROUSEL

I've actually been by that house. It was built by the Marchant Company and is located next to Altamont Road.I've been monitoring the post for months, but have never read about a relation to Marchant Company. They are not builders, by the way.

I thought it was the City Lights neighborhood which was developed by the Marchant Company? Maybe i'm getting it mixed up with a different one. :dunno: Please correct me if i'm wrong. :)

Do you like my house? I've been trying to sell it for months, but it's tough in this economy! :lol:

Expect a story soon from the Greenville News regarding proposed light rail transit/bus rapid transit. ;)

Anybody who likes mass transit will like this: http://www.greenvillecounty.org/Purchasing/RFP/3809.PDF :cheer:

I didn't even know that we lost the competition for the Davis Cup, Greenville take's it hard when it loses something because they didn't put in the newpaper :lol:

"The Greenville County Recreation District is working on a project in southern Greenville County that could be announced in the coming weeks."

"City leaders are expecting to see some movement on the next phase of RiverPlace, which could add three to four buildings to the site’s footprint along the Reedy River. This project had been barreling along at near warp speed for several years, but stalled this year due to issues with building a second garage."

"Look to see demolition soon of several houses on Markley Street in the coming months and for them to be replaced by two three-story multi-family residential buildings."

"The new Carolina First headquarters should be ready for staff to move in sometime this spring. The project along Interstate 85 has moved forward steadily despite the recent problems in the banking industry. And while staff will be working in the headquarters, work will continue on otherbuildings that could house more staff in the future."

"The Greenville AreaDevelopment Corp. has seen a string of recent announcements that brought new jobs to the area, and that success may not stall soon. There are about (20 other projects in the pipeline right now)."

G-man it's time for me and you to start making sending some e-mails. :lol:
