Why the shots from Greenville? Does the dude live here?
CNET Senior Associate Editor Patrick "Trick" Holland lives in San Francisco, California, according to his LinkedIn page and other reliable sources. The only South Carolina link for him that I can find is that he graduated from University of South Carolina with a bachelor of arts in theater. He obviously must visit here -- and quite often, too, as he has tested several phone models in and around the G'ville area. Perhaps he has some kind of family ties to the Upstate.

I can't read the Post and Courrier article about Greenville Triumph's search for a new stadium, but does anyone have insight on what they're looking for?
This article quotes from the P&C article: "The current home is limited in expansion capability, and the school gets first priority on use of the field, a challenge that will only increase as the club’s presence grows, [lead owner Joe] Erwin said." https://soccerstadiumdigest.com/2021/01/new-greenville-triumph-stadium-in-the-works/

This is the current Kangaroo/Marathon location at the corner of Chick Springs Rd. I assume they will tear down and build new.
That's what the cover letter says, so nothing to assume. "The proposed improvements include full demolition of the existing convenience store, fuel canopy, and Minuteman Press building; and the construction of a new 5,200 sqft building, canopy, parking areas, drives, utilities, and landscaping."

Welp... We closed on our house yesterday, so we will officially be paying for a house in that weird little dark corner that claims to be Simpsonville, but is right by Mauldin and Greenville proper, forever.
You can't even claim to be part of that "census-designated place" (CDP) known as Five Forks, the western boundary of which is Hwy. 14. Anyway, welcome to No-Man's-Land.

Has anyone heard if Husk plans to reopen?
The notice on the web site says the location is "temporarily closed," so it appears they plan to reopen in the future.

Well, the office building at 300 East McBee just went from 8,000+ square feet available to 40,000+ square feet available. Ouch. Who vacated it? It was whoever was on the second floor.
Four pieces available immediately, according to LoopNet and other sites:
1st Fl-Ste 101: 8,737 SF, Office, Full Build-Out
1st Fl-Ste 100: 11,290 SF, Office, Full Build-Out
2nd Fl-Ste 200: 21,467 SF, Office, Full Build-Out
3rd Fl-Ste 300: 6,414 SF, Office, Full Build-OutAnyone know of an entity that was utilizing spaces on three floors?

I love how they have the "Harris Teeter" sign covered up with a "Coming Soon" banner just below. It's not like it's a big secret. I guess they don't want people knocking on the door asking whether it's open. (As Gov. McMaster has said repeatedly in recent weeks, though in a slightly different context: there's a lot of stupid floating out there .)

The lower building across the street is turning out nicely. Any ideas who any of the tenants will be? Would be nice to get a Trader Joe’s there or a retailer currently missing from the market and tends to set up in downtowns. Like Urban Outfitters. Or a food court environment like Ponce City Market.
https://poncecitymarket.com/Doesn't look as though there is enough parking to sustain those types of enterprises. Just one humble personal opinion.

I think this will be an asset to the landscape.

Plus dogs are banned from Haywood Mall, as far as I know.
The new Grill Marks at Haywood Mall has a nice outdoor patio that welcomes dogs.

"The hotel, which is reminiscent of a rustic lodge-style found in national parks..." This phrase buttresses the concern that I've had since the plans were first published. Although it's an interesting design, it isn't really consistent with the surrounding community, and I think it's going to look out of place there.

What is purpose of the metal extension on side of office portion (7th floor)?
I was about to ask the same thing. Looks like some kind of awning or marquee ... but why that far up the side of the building? Form, in this case, apparently does not follow function. It's just a useless appendage.

I’d love to see J Crew open downtown as a result.
Yes, but rents there are going up, too.

Never thought I would see an Emirates Boeing 777 plane parked at GSP let alone TWENTY of them: http://www.greenvillebusinessmag.com/2018/07/05/176435/gsp-prepares-for-equine-invasion-airport-will-be-entry-point-for-550-horses-bound-for-world-equestrian-games Where are they going to park them all?
Lucky for me, I am flying out of GSP on September 8th and returning September 12th so I will be able to see all of these beautiful birds. If you want to see pictures of a recent similar operation: https://metroairportnews.com/emirates-skycargo-delivers-close-to-100-horses-to-miami-from-mexico-city/

Sears closing 72 more stores. Hopefully Haywood is one. I am ready for this space to be better utilized.
Haywood Mall store isn't on the list - yet. However, according to USATODAY.com: "The company signaled that there may be more closures to come. It initially said that it would be shuttering 72 locations out of roughly 100 non-profitable stores but when it later provided the list of locations that would be shuttered, the number had shrunk to 63. The company said that 'a small group of stores was pulled from the closing list . .. as they are being evaluated further.'''

As of right now it is until that date but after S.C. goes into compliance the first quarter of this year you will be good all the way until 10-01-2020 with just a DL.
Not sure where you're getting that information/interpretation, Gman. I won't challenge you on factual terms, as it is possible that you are correct. For now, however, color me skeptical. In the meantime, I recommend that people err on the side of caution and obtain a compliant ID as early as practical to avoid the possibility of encountering any airport delays. (And I am not personally concerned one way or another, as I have a federal ID. I just don't want general citizens to suffer as a result of this uncertainty.)

This is very confusing. So when boarding an airplane will SC residents need more than a DL?
I thought the underlined portions made it very clear: you should be good until October 10, 2018.

According to the FAQ on tsa.gov"
"Starting January 22, 2018, travelers who do not have a license or identification card from a compliant state or a state that has been granted an extension will be asked to provide alternate acceptable identification. If you cannot provide an acceptable form of identification, you will not be permitted through the security checkpoint."
Couple that with this information from dhs.gov:
"South Carolina has an extension for REAL ID enforcement, allowing Federal agencies to accept driver's licenses and identification cards from South Carolina at Federal facilities, nuclear power plants and federally regulated commercial aircraft until October 10, 2018."
Although South Carolina will not be issuing compliant licenses and IDs until late March, residents can submit the required documentation to any SCDMV office beginning now; their REAL ID-compliant cards will be issued when the system is ready to process them.

Ok, I'm confused: Wu's Cajun was rumored to come in that spot, but the web site is new.
But notice that the new web site for The Green Room doesn't identify any location at all. With so much publicity surrounding Wu's in Greenville - reinforced by the continued existence of its own web site at https://www.wusgvl.com/ - it appears as though The Green Room may be going to reopen somewhere else....

Thanks. His profiles seem to omit the Greenville connection for some reason.
