Hundreds of apartments in four planned affordable developments around Unity Park will go on the market over the next two to three years.

Greenville Housing Fund CEO Bryan Brown said he hopes to begin construction on the first of four coming projects near the end of 2022, and on the rest within the next year.

In all, the Housing Fund and its partners plan to build 1,000 affordable units on the periphery of Unity Park. The four initial developments planned by the Housing Fund account for about 375.

The City of Greenville donated multiple properties near the park for affordable housing that, combined with financial contributions, amounts to about $15 million, Brown said during a Sept. 12 City Council meeting.

He said he hopes to begin construction first on the Oscar Apartments, a 52-unit development that will stand at the corner of Oscar and Nasau streets, late this year. Of those units, 39 will be priced affordably for people making between 50 and 100 percent of the area median income (AMI).

Brown said he expects work to begin on the other three project shortly after. The Southernside Senior I project will be built off of West Washington Street with 93 age-restricted units affordable at 50 to 60 percent AMI. Southernside Senior II, also an age-restricted development, will stand near the intersection of Trescott Street and West Washington and will offer 54 affordable apartments for renters at 50 to 60 percent AMI.

The largest of the four developments, the Lighthouse Unity apartment complex, will add 252 units between Oscar and Meadow streets, 189 of which will be available for people making 50 to 100 percent AMI.

Nice.. 20 stories, we are starting to see some real highrises

SFL-WPB · #69 Posted **Jan 15, 2023, 12:08 AM**

Hey G-man435, I like that new proposed biulding on (West End of downtown Greenville on a site between Rhett, Oneal, Main and Wardlaw Streets) 11 stories and nice scale for the west end.

SFL-WPB · #70 Posted **Jan 15, 2023, 2:12 AM**

A new proposed 153-unit apartment building located adjacent to Unity Park is on the agenda for January’s Design Review Board (DRB) Urban Panel. According to the plans submitted by Red Fox Development, the project would be located at 141 Westfield St. and 375 W Broad, just a short walk from Unity Park.

^That project was deferred to the March DRB meeting so changes could be made to the design and material selection.

The 11 story mixed use project proposed for the West End of downtown Greenville was deferred to the April DRB meeting also: https://upstatebusinessjournal.com/s...ject-approved/

Brasfield and Gorrie is the contractor for the 20 story building. Construction to start in August or September.

Woven mixed use development just west of downtown received approval last week. Renderings and info here: https://gvltoday.6amcity.com/woven-d...e-sc?_amp=true and https://www.greenvillesc.gov/AgendaC...8?fileID=56943

I hope they dont scale it down, it was a good size for that side of town. it isnt far from the new Delano. fingers crossed all these get done with proper scale.
Thanks for the feedback on status of the projects G-man435

g-man435 · #73 Posted **Jan 21, 2023, 5:08 AM**

Agreed. I think it’s a great looking project the way it is.

The Kimpton hotel and condos for downtown which has been delayed several times in regards to starting construction is now slated to get underway in March or April: https://www.postandcourier.com/green...66fbb7629.html

SFL-WPB · #74 Posted **Jan 31, 2023, 1:32 AM**

I like the renderings that you put out last year on the Kimpton. Going to be a great looking Hotel and condo.

SFL-WPB · #75 Posted **Jan 31, 2023, 1:36 AM**

Also I am very much hoping that the new "11 story mixed use project proposed for the West End of downtown Greenville" goes through with no issues or at least little changes to original design, that is a great additon to the west side.
Fingers crossed.
