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. I don't make any money from this and these updates are to share, with both locals and out-of-towners, what is happening in the city they love. Many people reading this are far-away and this allows them to see the projects. If you can, please support any local businesses or follow social pages sharing photographs and thank them.

A lot of job creation/economic development in this week's update! Construction has also started on The Grounds! Lets get updated!

Looking for a rarely heard Christmas classic?

Timo's Italian Market will open at 465 West End Boulevard. The gourmet Italian market will also feature wine. The name is from the owner's name: Tim Painter. Yes, like Jim Painter of Contempo Concepts.

Realty Building Apartments:
With the closing of Mayberry Restaurant, could we see the Realty Building ownership restart plans for 11 apartments in this building? They stopped earlier this year. With an expired lease, the building is no longer generating any revenue and construction planning won't include an operating restaurant with its customers. Maybe... maybe not. I haven't heard anything, but would like to see work restart.

10 West Third:
I thought I would check-in on a few projects we haven't heard from in a long time! Starting with 10 West Third Street. Blue Pearl Restaurant gained permits on November 14, 2024 and the restaurant part of the project appears to be moving forward. The building itself is currently under renovation, with work starting on MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing).

New Jobs:
State code named project, Project Avenue, is considering neighboring Davidson County for a 231 job, $39 million investment. The project is seeking both State and local incentives. Sadly, there are few details at this time.

Loewy Building Apartments & Retail:
High Tide Capital would like to complete this project before a downtown art festival in August 2026. They also want a restaurant on the ground floor.

Siemens Mobility Eastern U.S. Passenger Rail Facility:
Siemens Mobility's passenger rail facility will be completed and open around June 2025.

Wieland Group Expansion:
Stokes County's fourth largest employer is expanding to meet the needs of the fast growing data center, defense, and aerospace industries.

The Grounds:
Carter USA has a ten-year option to acquire nearly 22 acres of the proposed development sites west and south of the LJVM Coliseum. If Carter USA acquires them, from Wake Forest University, they return to the tax rolls.

New Jobs:
Exim Transport of Austria is acquiring six acres at the I-85 Corporate Center. This is expected to create a good number of jobs and tax revenue, but there aren't any details at this time.

Triad Business Journal
Quote:
In the three months between the announcement and groundbreaking, Winston-Salem’s newest mixed-use development has grown in size and scope with a new value of more than $215 million.
The Grounds – located in the 100 acres bounded by Whitaker Park, Wake Forest University and the Boston-Thurmond neighborhood – officially broke ground on Dec. 7.
Quote:
Adam Parker, vice president at Carter and a Winston-Salem native, said that the increase has been due to demand both from users and investors.
“[We’ve been] doing things like market studies and talking to retailers and prospective people who would live here,” he explained…..The Class A office building will now come in at 127,000 square feet and the retail village at 42,000 square feet. There will be 25 for-sale lofts above the retail village and the residential community will have 229 units with 521 beds.

That photograph is from Fancy Gap, Virginia (46.5 miles/75 kilometres from downtown Winston-Salem). A hotel in that area of Virginia also advertises a Winston-Salem skyline view from their property.

One of the things I love about The Grounds: The development team keeps everyone up-to-date on what is happening. It's the only project on our list that I don't have to dig for information on. I'm guessing the office building added another floor? That is roughly the size of one floor.

Phase 1 is already improving the aesthetics and vibrancy of that portion of East End. I really wish they would develop a Phase 3 that would extend the development East down 5th to Cleveland Avenue and replace a couple of decrepit housing projects/apartments on that block. The City needs to go all out to make the East End neighborhood bounded by US 52, MLK Boulevard, and the Salem Parkway a fully revitalized, walkable modern mixed use community.

I think such announcements should be made through traditional media outlets as well as social media in which everyone does not wish to participate!

UNC comes to Winston to play Wake the last regular season game in 2025. That will likely be the last weekend in November or first of December 2025. With the Bill Belichick hire, all eyes will be on UNC and Allegacy Stadium that day. It appears phase 1 construction won't be complete until Summer 2026. I hope they can accelerate that timeline a bit so that buildings will be vertical, etc., by that time, so at least the sports world can have a visual representation of what the Grounds will look like.

Developers - you have approx. one year until the center of the sports universe will reside on Deacon Blvd., for approx. 4 hours. Let's make it happen.

Good point. It should be over half finished by December 2025, so if definitely will be a visible to some degree. I just can’t wait for the first phase to be completed. It’s a game changer.

After roughly 11 days, I think we finally recovered from a cold our son Noah shared with both Lauren and I. Just in time for a trip to see family in New York and just in time to show you the latest renderings of The Grounds! We have economic development news, too! Lets get updated!

Convention Center Renovation:
Look for work to start in the new year on roof replacement, a new freight elevator, lighting upgrades, and HVAC work at the Benton Convention Center.

Bowman Gray Stadium Renovation:

Entrepreneurship Building:
Wake Forest University received a $30 million donation for their award-winning entrepreneurship program. This will allow the university to construct a new building on campus for entrepreneurship and hire four new faculty members. The university can double course offerings while reducing class size. They can also expand classroom space, workshop space, and collaborative learning spaces for entrepreneurship. This new building will include space for their early-stage accelerator program (Springboard) and Startup Lab. No details on size, floor count, location on campus, height, GC, or architect at this time.

BioSpherix Center for Cytocentric Technology at PTRME:
BioSpherix in New York is establishing the BioSpherix Center for Cytocentric Technology at PTRME in downtown Winston-Salem's IQ District, to accelerate the translation of cell-based technologies. The center will focus on utilizing BioSpherix’s Xvivo System, which offers a more efficient approach to cell culture technologies.

The Grounds:
After seeing news articles and social posts talk about The Grounds scaling-up, while showing the old renderings, I thought... where are the new renderings? This development group is really great about keeping us up-to-date, so they likely released new renderings, too? They did and it's a nice scale-up! The office building did add another floor. It is now clearly five stories with a sixth floor mechanical penthouse. I love what they are doing with the bike/walking path next to the stream!

Economic Development:
Winston-Salem/Forsyth County has 62 active economic development projects. 12 of these are life science/biotech and 3 are in aerospace/aviation.



Alternative Transportation:

Transit, Bike, & Pedestrian Improvements:
WSTA has selected UMO Mobility for bus tracking, trip planning, seamless transfers, and cashless payments. Since UMO Mobility is used by several other bus systems in the Triad, riders will be able to transfer seamlessly to GTA, High Point buses, and PART regional service. Bus riders can also seamlessly transfer between bus service and ride share or scooters/e-bikes with this technology.

More from The Grounds which seems to be moving at lightning speed. I cant recall any other project of this size in the city that's coming to fruition this fast.

Details are up for the 229-unit apartment building. Lots of info and elevation drawings.

https://www.cityofws.org/DocumentCenter/View/36574/PBR-2025-02-PDF

Also, WSSU acquires 42 acres on Reynolds Park Rd for future residential expansion and possibly more? Always wanted this institution to support WFU in growing the local knowledge-based economy.

A Lithuanian factory maker has chosen Mocksville in Davie County for a factory that will employ 250 by the end of 2029.

SBA Group was awarded a state economic-development grant valued at nearly $1.9 million by the state Economic Investment Committee Tuesday morning in return for creating the jobs over a four year period. The company expects to invest $50.8 million for a 500,000-square-foot facility.

While I am no fan, I'm excited to see the NASCAR Clash at BG is sold out. It will be a good chance to showcase Winston and DTWS in particular to some new people. I hope the city embraces this and is ready.

Aperture Cinema, the city’s arthouse theater, has raised enough money to stay open in 2025, its new executive director announced in a mass email on Thursday.

Aperture’s leadership said in September that it needed to raise $100,000 by the end of the year to continue operating into 2025, an announcement it made at the same time that founding director Lawren Desai said she was voluntarily stepping down.
