The building is still being built. You can't say its going to be ugly and a disappointment yet. Wait.

The RATIO of glass to brick wall isn't going to change no matter how long we wait!

Only 3,772 of office space on the sixth floor remains for lease. In other words, 75-80% of the space on that floor has been leased. I don't know to who though.

Curbs have been poured for the (temporary) parking lot.

Balcony railings were being installed today.

Either this building looks better in its more completed state, or the gloomy weather just makes it seem more attractive. I can't tell yet...

From the Greenville News:

All 44 apartments at RiverWalk now SOLD OUT. Sixth floor office tenants will be Raymond James and Britt Peters & Associates Inc. while the seventh floor office tenant will be Hughes Investments.

[GvilleSC]

As expected! Great to see it officially!

I'll be fair and withhold final judgment until the building is completed, but thus far, I'm a little underwhelmed with how this is turning out. The windows seem disproportionately small relative to the overall building.

Yea, the brick to glass ratio doesn't seem quite like it did in the renderings. Also, the spire on top seems kinda thin. It's easy to miss, IMO.

Nonetheless, the new artist studios, the small amount of office space, and the new apartments are definitely a welcomed addition to the West End! Now, we just need more apartments...

I love this view on Augusta Street.

Are artist studios still part of the plan? I heard a rumor that those spaces would just be retail. Anyone know for sure?

[Urban Infill]

I would assume the artist studios are still part of the plan. They have built out most of the retail into what appears to be 500 SF bays. Pretty hard to rent those out to any other retail user. The large retail space is still available and I don't know if they have a tenant or not. The question I have is how in the heck is he going to park this thing? There appears to be about 60 surface spaces for 44 apartment units (mostly 3 beds) and a significant amount of office space.

Artist studios are still being implemented. Retail space (6,000 square feet) has not been leased yet.

I assume they'll be using the Riverplace garage. Those parking spaces are eventually meant to be developed.

I think this is also a reason why the side of the building facing Academy is sparsely decorated in terms of windows and other features. Eventually it will be hidden by another building, correct?

I hope the next phase will be constructed soon.  The broad side of this building is not fun to look at.
