It was a good decision for the City to not continue with the Evans streetscape project because once people get to the Reade Circle and Evans Street intersection they can spread out to which direction they need to go by going on Reade Circle. I think with all this development on Evans, soon they will start developing shops and mixed use projects like the Georgetown Commons project down the road and I could defiantly see that becoming the main road into Uptown.
Also, has anyone else been near the hospital recently? The new children's hospital is basically giving Vidant a whole new look! Its almost finished on the outside and the hospital is starting to finally look like the modern and innovative hospital it is. It gives that area a whole new image and it is great for that to be one of the first things you see when you drive into Greenville from 264
Are you able to take any pictures of the Children's Hospital or Vidant's facade?

It's not a shopping center. It's a industrial park. There is a sign on the property.

I've seen this work being done the last few weeks. Seeing how it's an industrial park, it makes me wonder if it has anything to do with certain small manufacturers having to relocate because of the impending 10th St. expansion.
Speaking about the drive into Greenville, as much as the City Council loves to streetscape, I would really like to see Stantonsburg Road receive a makeover from 264 to Memorial Drive.
They need to bury the power lines. Put up nice looking street lamps. Install the black traffic signal arms at ever needed intersection. Add an island median. Add dedicated turning lanes. And probably a few other things. other things.
This is the FIRST road most visitors see of the city. It is heavily traveled. This road needs to look good. Plus it will help residents here who travel to the Medical District every day.
