ACRE Apartment Homes went before the Design Review Board at the beginning of this month and was met with the board’s recommendation for approval, with conditions — like including a variety of plant species (native + evergreen) along Cleveland Street and on property to maintain visibility but also provide privacy. You can see the other conditions here.

Last week, the project went before the Planning Commission for approval, but was deferred to September to “allow the developer time to hold another neighborhood meeting to address concerns from the community,” says City of Greenville Communications Director Beth Brotherton. The first neighborhood meeting was held in July.

What do you think of this development? Stay tuned for more details on the next neighborhood meeting to share your thoughts with leaders + join the next Planning Commission meeting in person or virtually on Thurs., Sept. 15.
