Mozaic West

[gman430]

The consultant team and staff labored to find the right zoning classification for the West End. This is a neighborhood that—due to its proximity to downtown and frontage on U.S. Highway 123 (Academy Street), which ranges from four to six lanes—has experienced significant development in recent years. Some residents and owners would like to see the area remain low-density and low-scale, while other residents and owners are requesting more height and density in areas interior to the neighborhood. The property owners of the previously proposed Mosaic Planned Development have requested RNX-C within the neighborhood; staff has responded by providing RNX-C for several transition lots, stepping down to RN-C. The Mosaic project was submitted prior to the West End Small Area Plan and is included in its recommendations. The Mosaic property owner requested MX-5 along Academy Street and the neighborhood expressed a desire for MX-2, but the consultants’ original proposed zoning classification of MX-3 is consistent with the Small Area Plan. Staff endeavored to propose an acceptable zoning configuration, but understanding the complexity of this area, welcomes additional guidance.

I assume the developer finally gave up on this one.

Any updates with this one?

And the City of Greenville killed off another economic development project I see. Caved to the NIMBY’s. Sad.

I guess this one is no longer happening.

The homeless people have taken over the site. Yay.   It sure is beautiful isn’t it? Thanks City of Greenville for a homeless camp and boarded up building instead of a new mixed use development.
