The Cliffs at Mountain Park

[goodbye]

^^^I can't argue with that. The Cliffs is a very nice development.

Sounds like you renounced your earlier claims yet again.

We should all be very proud of Jim Anthony and his incredible work in the Greenville-Asheville area.

Anyone know if the Village area at Mountain Park has started construction? (Illustration in link below). I had heard it was suppose to start in June.

Gary Player breaks ground on his corporate headquarters. Rendering of the offices included in this article from the Greenville News.

Anyone seen the new billboards for this? There is one on 385 inbound.....it shows the moutains in vibrant fall color and reads something like......"This is what moves Gary Player"......"moves" being a double entendre.

I'll snap a photo of it next time I pass by.

I believe the same billboard is up downtown along Church Street. It's a great advertisement of the development, and even for Greenville and all that it has to offer.

A good article from the Greenville News on the new gary Player headquarters. Write up on the builders and design / style of the headquarters. Sounds like it will be an impressive facility. South African textures and materials will meld with contemporary and clean.

Quite a bit of activity and development happening at the Highway 25 and Highway 11 interchange. Hadn't been by in a while until a few days ago. The new corporate home for The Cliffs. The new corporate home for Gary Player. Another unidentified office building. Mountain Park. Some photos below:

The village area at Mountain Park is starting to look like a real village, with the condos well underway. Update photos from this morning:

With as much dignity as he could muster, the Old Man gathered up the sad remains of his shattered major award. Later that night, alone in the backyard, he buried it next to the garage. Now I could never be sure, but I thought that I heard the sound of "Taps" being played, gently: http://www.wyff4.com/news/30410916/detail.html

Great line from "A Christmas Story" Citylife! I have nothing but respect for Jim Anthony and this is a sad day for him. I would not want to be in the resort/high end second home development business right now....or for the next decade. I bet the Carilise's new strategy is going to be to start breaking up those lots and developing some smaller and more affordable cottage style housing. I dont understand golf course economics but I know they certainly arent a money maker so I find it interesting they are still pursuing a Tiger Woods course.
