Unless it’s gonna be back in spaces (which I dislike). Please don’t let the city start doing back in street parking Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnpro318 104 Report post Posted September 21, 2017 I dunno it’s in all the renderings at the end. Massing looks alright. Would argue that along Beattie Place and Academy is where developers should try and go taller, away from Main street and the West End. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RiverWalker 14 Report post Posted September 21, 2017 All the vehicles along McBee as shown in the illustrations are backed in. Seems very deliberate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GvilleSC 326 Report post Posted September 21, 2017 (edited) I hope the City takes the opportunity to narrow McBee. There's no reason for any stretch of this street to be wider than 3 lanes. And really, 2 would be sufficient and more pedestrian friendly. Edited September 21, 2017 by GvilleSC 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SVL 515 Report post Posted September 21, 2017 Some protected bike lanes would be nice along this stretch. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gman430 7309 Report post Posted September 21, 2017 Not bad on the massing and layout but needs more height IMO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What was the point of repaving it within the past week if they're just going to narrow it soon? Edited September 21, 2017 by gman430 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SVL 515 Report post Posted September 22, 2017 https://upstatebusinessjournal.com/news/hotel-housing-part-longterm-plan-remake-agfa-site/ Article from UBJ about the project. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicupstate 607 Report post Posted October 6, 2017 DRB approved the site plan but with some changes, mainly to make the Academy/Washington and Academy/McBee corners more promenient and visually appealing, and to widen the setback from the three streets by an additional 2 feet. They Do want to make the angle parking on McBee to be reverse in, just as shown. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree with man, some height here would have been nice. Greenville is surely the capitol of the U.S. for buildings less than 8 stories.

distortedlogic 297 Report post Posted October 6, 2017 Not sure I understand; so the placement and number of buildings have been approved but not the architecture, right? I mean, it looks like a seven year old drew those on a napkin. 36 minutes ago, apaladin said: I agree with man, some height here would have been nice. Greenville is surely the capitol of the U.S. for buildings less than 8 stories. Yeah, some height, anywhere in Greenville would be nice! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ausrutherford 115 Report post Posted October 6, 2017 Height comes once available land is largely depleted. There are still several C4 lots with just parking on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
