It's sad but it's really not surprising. Old money and new money don't spend in the same place. Newcomers don't want to buy a house or a membership in a neighborhood that's adjacent to one of the worst areas of town... legacy means nothing to them.
On the upside though, Brook Valley will end up with even more members and Greenville will have one of the state's premier courses.
In unrelated news - I just noticed "Contract Pending" on the real estate sign outside the old Bank of America downtown.
what generally happens to a golf course when it shuts down like this? If no one purchases it does it just sit there & the grass grows into a big mess?
The one in Grifton has ended up that way. That said the people around GCC have enough money and high enough property values that it would not surprise me if they at least hired someone to keep the thing mowed, like a huge vacant lot.
Looks like we are getting a Carter's Children s Store in the old Grand China Buffet in the Target shopping center. This is great news because there are VERY few nice children's stores in Greenville.
Anyone have any info on what will be going into the commercial space at the Boundary? Haven't heard or seen anything...or is none of it leased yet?
