Urban excavation is taking place right before our eyes. Part of West Lindsay Street has been closed permanently, in front of the Grasshoppers Stadium. On this four acre stretch of land, Roy Carroll is building the $50 million dollar Bellemeade Village. There will be 300 more apartments where residents can walk downtown or to the ball stadium. Some of the residents should be able to watch the ballgame and fireworks from their apartments. Also, a Hyatt Place is being built.  Here is an article if you want to see more details of the Bellemeade project.

The construction in Greensboro continues to amaze us. If you haven’t driven around downtown Greensboro and up Battleground Avenue in a while, you may want to do so. Greensboro has changed so much. They have torn down and dug up so much to make room for this new multi-block complex. It is definitely changing the landscape- and traffic patterns.

For our A-Z Urban Finds Series of ABC Wednesday, “E” is for Excavation.
