This is the first time I'm seeing this. Did I miss it or is this something new?

Ha -- I was just posting this in the New Developments thread. It almost seems like a hypothetical study. But, maybe not?

You're probably right but who knows. I like it though!

Not bad. I'm still waiting on Hughes 30 plus concept we saw a couple years go!

[greenvilleguy]

Haha.  I didn't realize we had an  "East Downtown Innovation District."

Where  downtown is this exactly?  Please bear in mind I am a Columbian, so while I have been to Greenville many times, I am unfamiliar with this "East Downtown Innovation District" thingy.

Last I knew, this was in the "North of Broad" district - they even had signage:

"North of Broad"  District.  Would that be "NOBRO " for short?  I live in trendy NOBRO!

Man, looks like McBee Apt either got bombed or suffered a localized earthquake!

So this is across the street from Publix and Staples, correct.

The East Downtown / Innovation District is basically east of Main Street and South of McBee.  I thought the other border was the Church Street bridge, but if this project is included in that ideated district then I suppose it extends past that.

According to Prescient this project is very much real. Expect to hear more on it soon. Coronavirus has caused a planned construction timeline to get delayed though.
