Ridge Retail
At close to 40-acres in area, located along University Ridge in downtown Greenville, the development will include 3 million square feet of new Class A office, retail, hotel, residential, and public space, and will include a new $65 million County Square administration building. The master developers, Roca Point Partners, envision the project as an urban environment designed to complement downtown with a mix of commercial, residential, public / institutional and service / industrial uses. It will also feature two central plazas and include multi-use trail connectivity on the east, north and west boundaries to better integrate the development with the surrounding areas and provide convenient access for residents in nearby neighborhoods.
Within this context MV+A has been tasked with the design development of three new projects: a Whole Foods Market and two retail / restaurant / entertainment buildings. All of the projects draw their design inspiration from Greenville’s exceptional historic industrial architecture. PiNS Mechanical will include over 24K SF of social play featuring duckpin bowling, more than 40 pinball machines, arcade and yard games, craft beers and classic cocktails. Buillding M will include over 50K SF of multi-tenant, majority restaurant-bar programing, with a sequence of dramatic open-air, elevated decks.
