🎶🏒⛹🏽‍♀️ Bon Secours Wellness Arena is set to undergo a $282 million transformation after the City’s Design Review Board (DRB) approved a renovation and addition project.

The Greenville Arena District will modernize the entrances, elevate the visitor experience, expand the building’s footprint and prepare the campus for future amenities including a new amphitheater.

The renovation keeps the arena’s iconic rounded shape but introduces new architectural forms. Renderings show a reimagined west lobby, a new two-story terrace on the northwest side and improved secondary entrances that will better guide foot traffic.

New building coming to the heart of Main Street. 💚 Plans for a proposed five-story building at South Main and Court streets are approved by the Design Review Board.

The project would be built on an existing private parking lot between Crust & Craft and the old Chamber of Commerce building, across the street from the Westin Poinsett Hotel, behind McBee plaza. It could include offices, apartments and underground parking.

The DRB approved the overall shape and size of the building, architectural details and upgrades to the nearby sidewalk and plaza with a few conditions, including a request to look at ways to improve windows and lighting.

Some items on the agenda ➡️

🏢 Developers are seeking a Certificate of Appropriateness for a new mixed-use development at 306 N. Markley. Currently a vacant lot, the proposed building would include ground level commercial space and three apartments.

👨🏾‍💼 Rezoning of 700 Arlington Avenue. The former Cultural Exchange Center has been remodeled. The owner is seeking approval to reopen as a professional office space.

🚦 Proposed road project to increase pedestrian safety and add medians along Vardry Street in front of Greenville High School. It would include rebuilding the intersection at Augusta/Vardry to reduce slopes to prevent cars from scraping and improve walkability of the intersection.

🌳 Open Space Initiative. The City and private property owners are seeking to zone multiple parcels, including a community garden in West Greenville, as open space or a park for permanent protection as part of our GVL2040 commitment.

⛵️ Smooth sailing .👷🏽 After 82,000 work hours over 481 construction days the rehabilitated Church Street Bridge is OPEN to vehicular traffic. 🏁 City leaders joined state lawmakers and transportation officials for a ceremonial ribbon cutting.

🚧 While the bridge is now open to vehicles, sidewalks remain closed. Pedestrian access will be restored once new handrails are fully installed. Final aesthetic enhancements are ongoing, including landscaping and the addition of pedestrian lights in the bridge wall.

🧰 SCDOT crews used approximately 1,250 cubic yards of structural concrete for the bridge walls and sidewalks and 12,250 gallons of paint. The $22 million project is scheduled for completion by the end of July.
