Abstract:

This downtown district is being restored to its former glory, thanks to business owners like the author’s parents and businesses like the Dickinson Avenue Public House. From this initiative, it provides more than college hangouts for those dining out. The town’s reputation is also changing, from one unable to offer graduates reasons to stay to one alumnus can call home.

Abstract:

Blount envisions Greenville’s potential fulfilled by two initiatives, once started, the other not yet being realized. His vision contains the continued development of the downtown area of Dickinson Avenue. His vision includes Greenville transforming into a residential town, also containing types of residences appealing to professionals, fledgling or experienced.
