The City of Greenville Design Review Board Urban Panel (DRB) reviewed three proposed projects at its August meeting.
Homewood Suites by Hilton + parking garage at 942 S. Main St in the West End will need to make some changes in the appearance. The DRB has previously approved plans for the project in March 2016 but the developer had to make changes to reduce the cost of construction. The changes included: eliminating a rooftop opening, adding a fourth level of parking, and replacing stone at the lower levels with brick.
A certificate of appropriateness for 531 S. Main (by Falls Park) was approved by the DRB as long as the crepe myrtles will not be disturbed by construction and the Swamp Rabbit Trail and Falls Park sidewalk not be closed during construction.
The DRB approved a preliminary certification for a special tax assessment for the Westone project at 109 W. Stone Ave., which plans to house a brewery, restaurant, and the second Coffee Underground location, among other retail outlets.
