River Street update makes the area look like somewhere in Europe. Thanks for sharing the progress in Savannah, DetroitMan!

It's been a while since this thread has been updated. A lot of new projects have been announced for Savannah and others have wrapped up. The Plant Riverside development is complete, along with the new Enmarket Arena. I took these photos on New Years Eve. The convention center expansion is chugging along as well as a new mixed-use project on Hutchinson Island.

Thanks for the update! I haven't been to Savannah in a few years and it's amazing to see how much that area north of Yamacraw by the bridge has changed.

Hard to believe there’s finally some activity on Hutchinson Island after all these years.

I've noticed that Savannah is building some more high rises. Definitely not complaining, but I hope they continue to preserve the historic district. More development on Hutchison would be nice, I saw something being built there last time I was walking down Bay Street.

Savannah has some of the most stringent codes in place in America preserving the historic district (the largest historic district in the US).

It would be nice to have some height in the buildings on that side of the river, being well outside the historic district and having commanding views of the historic district. I could see luxury condos doing well there.

SCAD master plan approved for new 220-unit student housing complex


Quote:
SCAD’s master plan for 703 Louisville Road features 220 units across two buildings: one six-story building and one seven-story building. The complex will have capacity for 800 residents. It will likely operate at around 700, said Brad Grant, SCAD’s senior vice president of development, at a July 25 special-called session on the plan. The Louisville Road lot It is also known as the Gateway Property. It abuts the Springfield Canal, which will require updates.

SCAD took over the lot after previous developer WEDP-Fund I, LLC seemingly abandoned it. SCAD issued a statement saying that “the amended SCAD master plan further reduces the footprint of the new structures and increases greenspace compared to the previously approved plan. As part of our commitment to the surrounding community, SCAD will invest an estimated $3.2 million to fully remediate historical environmental issues on the site.” The 1929 Seaboard Freight Station terminal on the site faced demolition when prior private proposals sought to replace with with apartment buildings. The city condemned the building earlier this year. SCAD, however, has proposed to preserve the headhouse and leave it in its current location.

At the Sept. 12 meeting, MPC staff recommended approval of the plan because the new development will sit between existing SCAD residential facilities at The Hive and Boundary Village. “We view this project as a vast improvement to what could be built currently by right,” said Josh Yellin, a lawyer representing SCAD at the meeting. “We agree with staff both in the prior recommendation and today, that this general development plan should be approved.”

Office building conversions to hotels increase need for space near downtown Savannah

Quote:
The “Savannah skyscraper” is set to become a Ritz Carlton after plans were approved to renovate the 15-story building overlooking Johnson Square.

The historic structure at 2 E. Bryan St. joins the Manger building across the square, which is being converted into a hotel by New York-based LEFT LANE. In addition, Marriott, which owns the Ritz Carlton brand, recently purchased the HunterMaclean building a few blocks away at 200 E. Saint Julian St. And the historic Realty Building at 24 Drayton St. was also recently sold for $14.2 million, although plans have not been publicly announced by the buyer.

TMGOC Ventures selected the historic building for the Ritz-Carlton project because the Charleston-based development firm was attracted to the opportunity of bringing a different type of hotel experience to the city, according to Co-founder and Managing Partner Sunju Patel. "There's not many products in the market at this rate structure, luxury and services," Patel said Friday. "Hence, we feel pretty good about our development."

In addition to the 100-room hotel, TMGOC will be renovating the neighboring 10-story building at 14 E. Bryan St. and adding three floors to accommodate 20 residences, a rooftop pool and lounge. The ground floor will also be opened up to the public with a restaurant and bar.
