$3 million building permit issued for New Realm Brewery. Choate is the general contractor. 

Nice! This is going to bring some life to the West End when it's complete. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

I heard last night from Mayor White why the city backed out. I myself wondered what was going on, and for some reason it wasn't followed up on by the media. The P&C article above doesn't really ch

Ooo I'm intrigued, this is a premier spot. Any idea on the architect?

Not a clue unfortunately. I’m not sure either if it’s a redevelopment of the entire site or just a renovation to the building itself. My guess is just a renovation sadly.

:) :yahoo: The music venue announced for Rhett Street years ago is finally moving forward: 

https://www.greenvilleonline.com/story/news/local/2023/05/23/trueine-live-music-venue-in-greenville-sc-opening-near-fluor-field-in-2024/70243612007/

Trueline, a two-story music venue in Greenville's West End, is slated to open in the fourth quarter of 2024. The venue will include a 1,700-capacity main hall and 400-capacity intimate performance room, rooftop space, VIP lounge space and multiple bars inspired by local artists.

Trueline will be located at 401 Rhett Street and will host "a diverse matrix" of events, including underplays, multi-days, block parties, dance parties and festivals. The project has been in the works for three years and is built to provide a midsize music venue that Greenville has historically lacked.

The venue will host 130 national touring artists annually in the 1,700-capacity music hall and at least 180 local and regional artists in the small performance room in its first year, according to company plans. The Trueline team plans to sell more than 180,000 tickets in the first year.

The half-acre site where the venue will be located holds the former D&B Glass Building, now an abandoned warehouse. A group named Hellbilly Reserves bought the site in 2016 for nearly $1.5 million. Trueline has signed a 20-year lease for the space, Grozier said. The land is zoned C-4, meaning it can be developed into a high-intensity mix of office, service, retail, entertainment, cultural, government, civic, light manufacturing or residential uses. 

The team behind the venue includes Grozier, co-creator of the House of Blues and EVP of clubs and theaters division for Live Nation; John Pedro, who has developed projects for major brands such as Kohl’s, Walmart, J Alexander’s and Live Nation; and Marty Elliott, a local Greenville talent buyer and booking coordinator.

The fact that one of the partners for this project is one of the co-founders of House of Blues is nothing short of awesome. It tells me that this new music venue will happen and will be successful. This and the Peace Center expansion should definitely help with the hotel occupancy rate for current and future hotels along with more business for the restaurants downtown. Greenville in a few years could be on the verge of being like Nashville and Austin when it comes to the live music scene:

For the life of me, I don’t understand why the Army Navy store redevelopment didn’t repoint and paint the brick exterior. The new bland stucco makes me sad. 

The purpose of the Stucco was the restoration of the original historic condition in order to receive tax credits.  I know putting some sort of mural on this wall was discussed during the planning meeting, but I don't think it was ever committed to by the developer.  This is just such a fantastic blank canvas at a high visiblity location and seems almost intentional that I don't see that not happening sometime after it's done anyways.  Arts in Public Places basically always comes after the DRB/Council approval and development build-out for a project anyways

A friend of mine heard Husk has been leased but did not know by whom. Anyone have any intel? Bueller?

The space is no longer being advertised for lease so it looks like has been leased. Not sure to who though.

https://gvltoday.6amcity.com/trueline-music-venue-greenville-sc. If this project requires Crowdfunding of $10m, then I would wager it never happens. 

crowd funding is not at all the right terminology for this.  They are opening up investments to the public and investors can expect a 12-15% return if even moderately successful, which with this leadership and market is fairly certain.  I doubt this is their main source of funding, they are just looking to provide an opportunity for normal people to invest in greenville, which is a pretty interesting idea. 

Crowd funding is usually not used when talking about equity investments, rather for things like KickStarter or GoFundme where you either get priority access to a good/service or is just a straight donation to a cause you support.
