Default "One of a kind" development for Greenville/Mauldin





WYFF video on this development: http://www.wyff4.com/video/13719045/index.html

Greenville News story: GreenvilleOnline.com -Local News-Sports, leisure complex to be 'huge' - (7/20/2007)

Plans for a five-phase sports and entertainment complex at the intersection of Fairforest Way and Mauldin Road were announced Thursday. Construction will start in late September on the Nolie Johnson Jr. Sports and Entertainment Complex on 120 acres of land near the former Greenville Municipal Stadium.

The project will be a mix of sports venues, restaurants and retail. The first phase will be completed by September 2008 and will feature three regular sized basketball courts and two half courts, four tennis courts, four racquetball courts, an aquatic center with three pools, a free-weight room, a boxing area, a restaurant featuring alternatives to fast food, a 3,500-seat concert hall and 26 retail spaces.

The second phase will include a day spa for women, a movie theater, childcare, a 1,000-seat amphitheater, a video game area and 20 more retail shops. There are also plans to host a minor-league basketball team in the complex. Plans for the other three phases have not been released yet.

I'm not too sure this development will become what it is planned to be. The Kroc Center is about to begin construction in downtown and is sure to be an attraction in that part of the county. I do not like the plan to potentially host a minor league basketball team in this development. Any future semi pro or pro teams should play downtown in the BI-LO Center.

^^The Kroc Center won't begin construction until Spring 2008, so basically this one beat it out. I agree with you about the minor league basketball team. Another thing is, if the movie theater planned for this development gets built, where will the people come from? The area around this is fairly rural.
