A retail center is planned for the highway 290 corridor north of Greer where residential growth has been steadily adding subdivisions. Cottage Corners will be located on a nine-acre site near McElhaney and Old Rutherford Roads, and is expected to house a branch of Pelham Road Family Dentistry, Taylors Family Medicine, and Monterrey’s Mexican restaurant. Lots are available for sale or lease and ground breaking is expected with a few more tenant commitments. The area has averaged about 110 new homes per year in the period from 2000 to 2006. Highway 290 also connects to scenic highway 25 that provides access to the Upstate and North Carolina mountains.

The one-year old Greenville Drive baseball stadium downtown continues to generate opportunities for the area and prove to be a valuable asset. The Southern Atlantic League announced that the 2010 All-Star game will be held at the West End Field. The NCAA Southern Conference also plans to hold its conference tournament here in 2009. This year’s SAL All-Star game in Rome, GA and the Southern Conference tourney in Charleston attracted 4,333 and 31,000 fans respectively. For 2006, the West End field was named Ballpark of the Year by Baseballparks.com and drew a record 330,126 fans to ballpark.

Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport is seeking a federal grant that will help to lure a low-cost carrier back to the market. The $800,000 grant and a matching $200,000 would be used as insurance by a carrier that failed to meet their quotas. GSP is seeking airlines such as Denver’s Frontier that would give access to the West Coast with economy fares. Airport officials estimate that they lose 35% of traffic to other airports with pricing discounts. Elsewhere in aviation news, you may see an upgrade of regional jets to include small business and first class sections in an attempt to lure business travelers that are tired of cramped 50-seat jets. All the airlines flying out of GSP except for Allegiant Air utilize smaller, regional jets.
