This is the latest on the long proposed center city park and mixed-use devlopment for downtown Winston-Salem. Finally, i developer is chosen. I was hoping to see renderings today but looks like it could be between 2 and 4 months. Anyway, this will be a big step towards turning downtown around. $100 - $150 mil, 500-700 residents and 3.2 acres are nice numbers.

Sounds good. Downtown Winston-Salem has such great potential. I believe in the next several years some of that potential will be realized, and downtown Winston-Salem will be transformed into a lively, attractive area.

I googled the developer and went to dwsp.org but was unable to find any substantive information on the developer's proposal. |

This looks like a wonderful project for Winston. It kinda parallels with Center Pointe and the center-city park in Greensboro.
I love the design. any idea when construction will start? This post has been edited by cityboi: Aug 3 2006, 03:05 PM |

This will certainly add to the density of downtown W-S. It looks really good to boot! All along with 20K sqft of retail! (IMG:http://www.urbanplanet.org/forums/style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

Get out of town! That rendering is off the rocket. This is incredible news. Construction can't start soon enough. (IMG:http://www.urbanplanet.org/forums/style_emoticons/default/yahoo.gif)

I saw they started demolition of the old buildings today to make way for the Civic Plaza and One Park Vista. Good times.

WOW! It's about time W-S gets a classy building like that, and 20 stories (my personal subjective number for a skyscraper).

(IMG:http://www.urbanplanet.org/forums/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I drove by tonight and there is no demo from what I could/can see. All there was was some gates blocking off access to the buildings on Fourth and that's it. |
