This has been in the works for years now, around a decade. Something of that scale will take much longer to happen in a city the size of Rock Hill, but with an actual developer now behind the plan, it will finally happen. It will be developed in phases over a period of 5-6 years. The ball got rolling when the old cotton factory was developed a couple of years ago and it has been a success.
