ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK MAY 2019
DRAFT Decades of public and private investment have shifted the development paradigm in Downtown Greenville.
• This plan is intended to set in motion specific initiatives and projects to shape Downtown’s growth over the next 5-10 years and beyond
• Downtown Greenville must build upon its strong foundation to:
• Compete for the next generation of creative businesses
• Sustain and enhance the market for Downtown retailers
• Address the dislocation of long-time residents and families
HR&A Advisors, Inc. DRAFT Greenville Downtown Plan | 2 Downtown Greenville’s strong recent growth trajectory is projected to continue, with 4,600 to 6,000 new residents over the next ten years.
HR&A Advisors, Inc. DRAFT Greenville Downtown Plan | 3 Young adult and empty nester populations are driving Downtown’s population growth, and this will likely continue.
Change in Population by Age, 2010-2016 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% -10% -20% -30% -40% 0-4 5-17 18-24 25-34 35-44 45-54 55-64 65-74 75+

Starting in 2014, multifamily development began to pick up in Downtown, adding around 2,060 units to the market in 4 years. Half of those units were added in 2017.

Full-Service Chain Limited-Service Independent Snacks/Coffee/Juice Alc. Drinking Places
Downtown has a unique and thriving independent food and beverage scene.
New development has attracted more national or regional chains. These chains have higher credit-worthiness and can support higher rents and longer lease-terms.
The restaurant industry is struggling to find employees with good access to Downtown, with many restaurateurs expressing concern about parking and residential rents. Source: ReferenceUSA HR&A Advisors, Inc. DRAFT Greenville Downtown Plan | 7 The Downtown hotel market is healthy, reflected by its high occupancy rate despite the introduction of new room supply in recent years.
Average Daily Rate & Occupancy, Downtown $200 90% $180 ADR $160

Downtown Business Attraction Anchoring Hospitality Use Initiative
Affordable Housing Downtown Street Re- Strategies Development Strategy
HR&A Advisors, Inc. DRAFT Greenville Downtown Plan | 13 Greenville should pursue a strategy that ties together its educational and entrepreneurial strengths.
Ideal anchors will be:
• Sufficiently large to build long- term confidence
• Valuable to “spin-off” firms that will benefit from being nearby
• A destination for residents, workers, and visitors
Creating this innovation platform Downtown will promote greater long-term stability, better access to a talented workforce, and interconnected entrepreneurialism.
HR&A Advisors, Inc. DRAFT Greenville Downtown Plan | 14 Investing in a Downtown events center offers the opportunity to showcase Greenville and support Downtown retail and restaurants.
A Downtown events center can promote the continued success of tourism, enabling existing and pipeline hotels to maintain high occupancy rates.
Focusing on business travelers will enhance the City’s visibility with business leaders; talent recruiters report getting prospects to Greenville is essential to filling positions.
Increased visitation will help promote the success of existing retailers; specific retail policies and incentives can lend further support.
HR&A Advisors, Inc. DRAFT Greenville Downtown Plan | 15 A variety of strategies to promote housing affordability will ensure Downtown is a place for families and seniors as it continues to evolve.
Require affordable component in all residential development when disposing of public land.
Consider investments in transportation that make it easier for low and moderate income workers to commute into Downtown.
Institute an affordable housing requirement for projects receiving City financial support, which could be accomplished by a fee-in-lieu.
HR&A Advisors, Inc. DRAFT Greenville Downtown Plan | 16 The City can take control of arterial streets and implement complete street models that support high-quality mixed-use environments.
Moving arterial streets from State ownership to City control will have a positive impact on the long-term development trajectory of Downtown Greenville.
In the Buncombe Street Corridor, the City could implement traffic calming and streetscape improvements that enhance the development value of the area.

DOWNTOWN STRATEGIC MASTER PLAN / GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA “Whether we encourage local artists to take on their first big wall or bring in nationally known talent to create a site-specific piece, shepherding murals and other fun art interventions into the NEON is one of the most important things we do. I see the flood of happy faces taking pictures and selfies with the art every day and can see how it’s transforming the neighborhood,” Rachel McCall, Special Projects Manager for the Downtown Norfolk Council.
