Thanks! Yeah i know,  at least it's not just a simple square or rectangle box though, so it looks better than many others.

The parking garage is really moving along quickly here and it's massive. I like how this space is getting filled in.

Wow, that's impressive! I almost wish they would do that to the mainstreet side too.

Please let me know when Greenville gets a double A team like the Braves had here.

Doesn't have to have one. The current venue is much nicer and I've had much more fun there.

Siding with Apaladin here. The level of baseball is lower than Greenville deserves.  And yes, the venue and experience are top notch other than the ball.

Interesting that the minor leagues are contracting right now.  Baseball is hurting like any other sport, and parent teams are consolidating to help with expenses. And a lot of that has been centered around proximity (or lack thereof) to the parent.  The city investing more for a Single A team far from Boston doesn't make sense to me.  Hopefully a longer play to attract a higher level team at some point.

Could not disagree more... The Drive have had major players come thru this team in the past decade (Betts, Rizzo, Devers, Benintendi). Some players here now will likely continue to move up thru the ranks (Brannen, Bautista). The level of baseball is fine.  In the minors it's about the players much more than the teams and, if you are watching, we have a pretty regular opportunity to watch greatness for a measly $8.

I'm siding with Joey_Blackdogg. Yes. Lol.

West End Greenville is one step closer to an entertainment district.

In the first of two required readings, Greenville City Council approved a proposed ordinance Monday that would convert the area near Fluor Field at Field Street into a pedestrian-friendly plaza.

Is this getting a tower crane? I saw what appeared to a tower crane base when I drove by. It was along Vardry Street,  anyone else see it?
