It’s no secret that the Village of West Greenville is rapidly growing. Conveniently located about a mile from downtown, this up-and-coming area is booming with new businesses. Think: 60+ galleries, shops, restaurants, and more. (Be right back — we just need to grab a quick cappuccino from The Village Grind and a meatball parm from Coastal Crust.)
Plus, there’seven more to look forward to. Construction is underway at townhome community The Kitson + major mixed-use development Woven is expected to break ground in March.
If you’re a business owner or developer looking to join the neighborhood, the local experts at Trinity Partners say now’s the time. We’ll let some recent listings speak for themselves: Two office suites in Poe West, two Railside Studios spaces, and two suites at 1278 Pendleton St. were just signed for. We’ll keep our eye on what moves in.
