This project is looking really good on the Piazza side! The glass really makes things pop. I can't wait for Piazza work to start this month!

[GvilleSC]

I didn't realize this, but it appears that the end where the Evolve Male store was will remain 3 stories. I think this is a good move, though I really wish they had been able to save the previous building and facade.

Edit: It is 3 stories in the renderings, but it's hard to really tell. Image 4 on the ONE website shows the North Laurens/West Washington corner.

The ONE website is saying there is less than 20,000 sq. ft. left in the I and II. I would think they would announce plase III soon then with the first two nearly called for?

Today's Greenville Daily Photo (by Mike Nice) features the One Development:

Notice the construction in the foreground on Laurens Street, too.

This project is really coming together nicely. I still cant figure out where this Phase III talk is coming from. I cant find any thing solid on this. Is this strictly Internet rumor, or does someone actually have some proof that this is going to happen?

Look at the ONE website. It shows future Phase 3 off to side, but no specifics and it only shows a tiny part of it.

Here's a quickie, crude Photoshop of the final size...

Construction bids for the Piazza Bergamo renovation project go out September 6th.

I don't have an update for this, but I can't believe we've let it slip to the second page! Anyone have anything to add?

[ausrutherford]

Yea, where is Phase #2? Has it been topped out?

WYFF reported that the topping will take place by the middle of October.

It's a little strange that we still don't have any new word on retail or dining tenants.

No other tenants have signed leases would be my guess.

The ONE website is saying there is less than 20,000 sq. ft. left in the I and II. I would think they would announce plase III soon then with the first two nearly called for?

The website says there are THREE plates for 20,000 each. Total of 60,000 SF available.

[gman430]

90% of the entire project has been leased according to Hughes and WYFF.

I was referring to office space left.

If thats true, Phase III must be in the planning stages.

It's funny to see people on this forum complaining about the name and architecture of this project when it is not even finished yet. I guess the tenants, hundreds of construction and permanent jobs, new public plaza, renovation of Laurens Street, new bank headquarters, Clemson business school, high-end national retail, adding to the city's tax base, filling in a long vacant site, etc. don't matter. Most cities especially of Greenville's size would kill to get a development of this magnitude during these economic times right now:

Most cities especially of Greenville's size would kill to get a development of this magnitude during these economic times right now:

Many cities would kill for any of the downtown developments. 3 new Apartment buildings on Rhett alone, the planned Phase 3 on One, or the dozens of extended developments of already built projects like Riverplace.

Many cities would kill to have the sight of the mayor and city council.

The new park along the Reedy will only improve this.

The Piazza Bergamo renovations were awarded to Brasfield and Gorrie for $3,387,319 on September 21st. The city budget for this project was $4 million so it looks like they will be saving a good bit of money.
