Meet MrKnowItAll: you might have seen him pop into the News Notes with a juicy piece of info, but today we’re bringing him front + center to let us know the latest word on the street. 💬 Just a note: his tips aren’t always guaranteed, but they’re too exciting not to share.
What’s going in to the former Vann & Liv location in the ONE Greenville building?
Children’s clothing boutique Vann & Liv left the space next to Orvis empty (2 W Washington St.) when they shifted to a single location at 1803 Augusta St. in September, and C.O.R.E. (Instagram), an athletic apparel + boutique fitness store, will take its spot this month.
What about the space on Main St. that used to be The Beaded Frog?
The Beaded Frog opened in 2003 + closed in 2016, citing high rent costs. Now the space at 233 N. Main St. (next to Jersey Mike’s, across from the Hyatt Regency) could get new life as Sweetberry Bowls, a superfood bowl franchise with several locations in New Jersey + one nearby in Holly Springs, N.C.
And last but not *lease*, we’ve been hearing rumblings that the dine-in movie theater proposed for the Camperdown development is back in play. 👀
To catch you up on the development: here are new renderings of what the AC Hotel by Marriott at Camperdown (which will face Main St.) will look like, and you can see drone shots of the development in progress here.
Here’s the current site plan for Camperdown’s plaza level, and where we heard the theater would go:

Floor plan from Centennial American Properties + Collett Real Estate
The up to 20,732 sq. ft. available space along Japanese Dogwood Lane (in the green square above) would be the future location. For comparison, Regal Hollywood Stadium 20 in Magnolia Park is ~80,500 sq. ft.
