Projects & Construction:
I want to thank the photographers and local businesses, sharing updates on projects, who make this thread possible. Without you, these updates won't happen.
Construction is on the rise in Winston-Salem! Winston-Salem had the biggest increase (by percentage) in construction employment, of North Carolina's big six cities, over the past year! Very impressive! I also saw a report that said downtown had an increase in the total number of jobs by more than 11,000. Wow!

Bailey South:
The opening of this $22.5 million office & retail project is now moved to June 2020. Eight months until completion!
Some people are asking about this crane: It is for a neighboring project we aren't following on this thread.

The Easley Apartments:
The developer has acquired the site and has financing, but will wait until next month to seek final City Council approval, while they make a few modifications to the proposal.

WFBH Eye Institute:
This project is much bigger than what was originally reported! Look for apartments, retail, a large parking deck, and a "possible" hotel in this potentially three building project! rmhpmi @ WSTB Forum reported seeing "an "environmental drilling and construction" work crew" at the site, "taking soil and/or water samples." I can report (confirm what he said) that Hart & Hickman was hired to do this work for all three proposed building sites. When completed, this will fill the entire site west of Research Parkway and south of Third Street. An official announcement is expected in 2020.

Construction Growth:
Winston-Salem had the largest increase (by percentage) in construction employment, of North Carolina's big six cities, over the past year! Information from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
1. Winston-Salem: 6% Increase
2. Fayetteville: 3% Increase
3. Durham: 2% Increase
4, Raleigh: 1% Increase
5. Greensboro: 1% Increase
----State Average---- -1% Decrease
6. Charlotte -5% Decrease
Winston-Salem is booming right now! I try to post at least some of the construction, but there are maybe three or four times more construction projects than what you see in this thread. The projects in this thread are just the projects I can find photographs and updates for. There are some projects I can't find updates for and they never appear here, other than maybe a one-time announcement of the project.
