Interesting. I wonder if it will try to join in on the USC/MUSC merger?

Any news on where the site will be?

I believe they said around the site of the original hospital in Greenville. Not sure on that, still looking for more info.

It is tied into USC, Greenville Tech, and some other businesses.

Huh? The original hospital in Greenville?

Wait, USC or USC Upstate? I guess its all the same now.

Article says they are all tied into it. Even USC Spartanburg! Thats why it was changed to USC Upstate! The land is located near the original hospital, 22 acres of it! Project is more than 20 million dollars. I think thats awesome.

I guess the question is- where is the original hospital? Defintately good news.

There is an article at Greenvilleonline. The site is on Grove Rd. I think its near a large mental hospital. Remember, I am still kind of new to the area.

Oh ok, Its at Greenville Memorial Hospital. In Greenville there are two major hospitals: Greenville Memorail (Which is on Wade Hampton) and St Francis which is in the western part of Greenville near Easley Bridge Rd (S Academy). Greenville Memorial is a larger hospital, and it has a fairly large branch campus off of Pelham Rd. Both hostpitals have many small branch campuses all over.



"It is a joint project of GHS, the University of South Carolina, USC Upstate, the Medical University of South Carolina, Palmetto Health, and Greenville Technical and Community College. Greenville Tech and GHS will run the center."
