CONSTRUCTION THREAD: TD Bank Regional Headquarters Campus

[gs3]

A crane is now up at the site, so we should start seeing steel rise any day. Didn't have my camera with me or I would have snapped a photo.

GREAT!

Just wanted to fill you all in with some good news. Carolina First Headquarters is finally rising. Steel is going up now as we speak. I think they might have just started today

[GvilleSC]

Thanks, Erm! That's fantastic!

question: all of the jobs that South Financial/Carolina First will create, are those being created now or are those waiting on the buildings to be built?

Thanks Erm! This is great to see. G-man is already out taking photos of the progress and has them posted elsewhere on the web.

Look like the steel will rise up fast.

The steel is up to the 5th floor on the first building.

How is the view from the interstate??? I didn't realize they would be 5 stories! Thanks for the update!

The view should be very good. At the moment with just the steel for the one building, you see it, but it doesn't hit you in the face. When all 5 of the phase 1 buildings are up, and lit, it should make really great impact.

Will somebody take a picture?

Looks like all the steel is up on the first building:

[GvilleSC]

How does this look from the interstate? Can you see it coming North to the same degree that you can see Hubbell from a decent distance? Thanks for the update!

[gvillenative]

You really cant see a lot of it from far away. When you're right up on it is when you can really see it. Not as big an impact as Hubble, but it is set farther back than is Hubble is too.

[gs3]

Hubbell definitely shows up better being on the curve of 85. With South Financial/Carolina First, some of the trees diminish the impact. I wonder though, if they'll remove some of the trees along 85 the way ICAR did? The water feature / pond, looks like it may come almost up to 85.

[gs3]

Looks like the second building may be starting. Was by today quickly on 85, but caught a glance.

Noticed today that 3 buildings are under construction. Office buildings 1 and 2, along with the oval shaped Conference Center.

Need to go back and take this one with a telephoto. This isn't the best photo.

St. Joseph's has a great view of Millenium Campus / The Point. Carolina First going up behind Hubbell.

Vey cool pics gsupstate

Anyone know how much taller this building will get? (the one on the right)

[gs3]

A bit better photo of the activity going on in the area of The Point:

[Greenville]

Wow, that gives quite a perspective on all the activity! I-85 through Greenville is going to look a lot different in a few years.

Agreed! That's a great shot. Thanks for sharing!

[gs3]

Noticed today that the walls are starting to go up on the steel frame, on the first building.

Does anyone know the opening date for the four-lane road connecting The Point and Millenium Campus? The landscaping looks to be complete and the road looks as if it is ready to open.

Construction lights are now hanging in one of the buildings.

[gs3]

The buildings are really starting to take shape with the glass walls going up. Looking nice.
