Agfa redevelopment

[apaladin]

If the government builds it its possible because they have plenty of money. All they have to do is roll the presses.

I think downtown and Greenville as a whole should just throw in the towel. It's a failed experiment. Nothing is ever going to get developed or built again. Everything is going to fall through and main street will be a deserted rotting strip of asphalt. The falls will dry up, the bridge will fall, the 5 story towers will collapse, the trees will die, and the Greenville memory will vanish as a breath in the wind. Goodbye Greenville.

Gosh...hope the funeral is on a day I can attend.

Brooks Brothers agrees with you.  They got out before it’s too late.

I know, seriously.  With all this doom and gloom we should go ahead and prepare the eulogy.

The property that this project is being built on sold on 12/30/20 for $3,000,000.  Sounds like it is still on to me.

Isn't that the same price that the Gateway site sold for?

Yes, but that was in 2017 and it is 1.83 acres vs. 2.29 acres.

This project looks like it’s dead.

Reverse psychology.

Maybe they forgot about it.

Maybe for the Avant?

Still no movement on site. Maybe some decade. Maybe not.

Any updates?

Can somebody tell me what this article says. I can’t read it. Does it involve this project or the gateway site?

I recommend switching to “Private” or “Incognito” mode on your browser to read GSA. That said, here’s an excerpt for you:

The Gateway to Greenville development is far from the only proposed affordable housing project riding on the FILOT greenlight, but if it is allowed to move forward, it may be one of the most high-profile projects within city limits to receive incentives since the 262-apartment Project Unity Gateway development, which included 52 units of affordable and workforce housing.

“So we have to get the county’s participation and that’s a bigger issue than just this one project,” the mayor said. “That’s a bigger issue than just this one project, but we have a number of projects that could include affordable housing if there were a FILOT but right now we’re sort of frozen.”

So far, all discussion with the county on the topic have been “nothing but positive,” he said.

But the residential component of the project is old news, according to White. He’s most excited about the retail and restaurant space planned for the ground level of the apartments, creating the pedestrian-friendly entertainment destination lobbied for by resident respondents to a spring survey.

Thank you. I’ll post the article link in the correct thread.
