Trueline’s founding membership presale is officially live, and it’s our first look inside The Green Room, the venue’s private, members-only club.

Designed as an elevated hospitality experience within the highly anticipated West End music venue, The Green Room promises:
  • Exclusive access
  • Priority ticketing
  • Crafted dining + signature cocktails
  • Curated programming

News Notes

Mansion Monday

Greystone, a 100-year-old stone estate overlooking Cleveland Park, is on the market in Alta Vista. The “architectural icon” boasts a renovated kitchen, views of the grand pool and hot tub, four fireplaces, a formal dining room, and a chance to own a piece of Greenville history.

Open

The bar is now open at Little Secret in Woodside. Every Thursday to Monday, it opens at 4 p.m. with its Asian-fusion-inspired menu and craft cocktails.

Outdoors

Renovations are underway at Southside Park, including a new playground, repaved roads, added parking, and upgrades to the tennis, pickleball, and basketball courts with new lighting. Expect temporary closures as work continues.

Seasonal

Bike Walk Greenville and Pedego are hosting free Bike Maintenance 101 classes on Feb. 21, March 7, and April 4 at Pedego Electric Bikes. Learn preventative care, on-the-road fixes, and theft-prevention tips just in time for spring riding season.

Plan Ahead

Yes, this is as wonderful as it sounds. Golden Day returns to BridgeWay Station on Saturday, May 23 from 2 to 6 p.m. Expect a plaza packed with golden retrievers, a curated vendor market, and plenty of tail-wagging photo ops.

🚲 Big Swamp Rabbit Trail news

A view of the Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail.
More trail coming soon. | Photo by GVLtoday
Across the country, 700+ communities applied for Federal RAISE grants. Only 148 grants were approved, including Greenville (the only in SC). Less than 40 of those 148 have been executed to date, and Greenville has been working since July 2024 to get a fully executed agreement.

Now that the $20 million been approved, work to connect more communities to the Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail Network is coming soon. Of course, we’ll share every update with you right here.
