Nice article on Innovista. It's hard not to be optimistic after reading this. It states that Columbia has "a continuum of innovation unlike anything else in the Southeastern Innovation Corridor."

There is a campaign called "Keep Five Points Funky" already. Not too well known, but they have bumper stickers around in various stores and bars. Here's the website.

I am somewhat of a Five Points resident (less than 1/2 mile away) and am a little bit concerned about the height. I think Five Points needs more density from a street level and does not need it's own skyline. I'd much rather see four two-story projects go up than a single eight-story project.

Affordable homes coming to Olympia/Baseball Stadium area. USC Development Foundation sold the 1.14 acre area between Catawba St and the new stadium to the Columbia Housing Authority. There will be 15-17 mill village homes built. The plan is for 1,500 square feet homes at a price point of $140,000. Link to article

It's going to be a deli and bar called Lucky's. It has common ownership with College Mart, so it's connected at the back. I assume the connection is for employees only. The good thing is that it's connected to Locals (though not exactly flush) and it fits in well with the rest of the strip. Another positive is that it blocks a good bit of the view of College Mart from Harden St.

It's called Pearlz Oyster Bar and it will be moving in next door to Nonnah's. Pearlz currently has one location in downtown Charleston. About Pearlz
