I love the downtown park. Very cool. and that walking bridge is so cool, as well. Downtown is very nice and continuing to become even nicer. A lot better than downtown/mainstreet Columbia.

This morning a judge ruled in favor of Hughes and the City of Greenville which means the ONE/Washington Square development can now proceed forward. A petition was signed by by 52 downtown retailers in support of the project which definitely helped favor the court's decision. Also, the site grading permit for Brasfield and Gorrie (general contractor) was approved on August 19th which means construction can and will probably start immediately.

Onward Greenville!

Bookends phase II/Washington Station will be starting construction the first week of October. Financing/lending is being provided by First Tennessee Bank National Association.

Two new corporate headquarters for downtown Greenville:

Several companies recently chose downtown for their new corporate headquarters. Wireless Communications, Inc. purchased 105 East North Street. The 15,000 square foot office building will add some 30 corporate associates to the thriving and vibrant Downtown Greenville community. Wireless Communications owns and operates 23 stores in the Upstate and Midlands of South Carolina and Northeast Georgia, including its flagship store at 103 North Main next to Piazza Bergamo.

Another new company for downtown is Proaxis Therapy, who recently purchased the "Bergamo Building," located at 103 North Main Street. Proaxis Therapy provides advanced physical therapy services focusing on creating positive outcomes for their clients. The company began in 2004 with two employees and one clinic and has grown to more than 120 employees and 13 clinics in Greenville, Spartanburg, Pickens, and Anderson counties. Proaxis Therapy plans extensive renovations to the building. Other building tenants include The Gathering Spot, Verizon Wireless (owned by Wireless Communications, Inc. mentioned above), Wish, and Enwright Associates, Inc. Architects, Engineers, and Planners.

The City of Greenville extends a warm welcome to these new corporate headquarters!

Yes it is.

g-man, has there been any recent word as to "if" that bookstore was going to be part of the project? I mean, is it happening, too? And, what's the name of the bookstore again? I think you said it was from Lexington?...

A bookstore has not been announced for the project at this time. That's not to say one couldn't announced in the future though.

On Friday the judge issued a ruling in favor of the developers meaning construction will begin immediately.

Eight days.

What's this about an unveiling of the second tower next month ?

g-man430 · September 17th, 2011, 07:26 AM

Black fencing and Triangle Construction signage is now up on the Bookends II site. Trees have also started to be removed. Looks like construction is officially underway now.

According to a news article in the newest issue of the Greenville Journal, the second tower is slated to go to the Design and Preservation Commission for approval in October. It is not up on the city's website yet though. Tenants for this building are slated to be announced next Friday also. The city could be waiting until this day before posting the application on their website.

That's the building ? Disappointing. Looks like a parking garage.
