    I know renderings aren’t always the most reliable but this one shows quite a bit of setback from the roadway, enough for a sidewalk, trees and shrubbery. The current building runs right up to the sidewalk. Could this be a completely new building or perhaps they’re removing that front end of the current one? Or maybe even a narrowing of Buncombe St?

    $1B redevelopment of County Square in jeopardy with 'no' vote on state offices

    The “in jeopardy” part sounds like Greenville News just using an eye-catching headline. I can’t imagine the whole thing falling apart because of a delay in moving these state offices. I wouldn’t think the council members who voted against the move to Halton would also be against the redevelopment. I’m sure the council will figure something out, given how much money is involved in the redevelopment deal.  If anything, this will just cause a delay,  which we are already used to with just about every single project in Greenville, especially those involving government/tax money.

  3. Noticed the other day that some work is being done to the sidewalk in front of 1279 Pendleton, and that curb extension are getting placed on the north side of Pendleton between the new plaza and Irvine. It sure made the street feel really narrow but I guess that was the point.

    What is more disturbing is that the county councilman wants the county to keep as much as 10 acres.  That is way too much.  

    Besides government offices, County Square also houses Greenville County EMS, who use their space as administrative offices (management, billing, HR, etc.) as well as a headquarters for their field operations, central deployment base, and dispatch center. Whichever way the project goes, it would have to take into account the space needed for the ambulances, which may eventually translate to them keeping some surface parking. Currently, ambulances can be seen parked near the bay doors at the northwest corner of the building, off Howe St. Still, 10 acres does seems like way too much for the county to keep, so it will be interesting to see how this all plays out.
