$18.2M Morgan Square makeover gets final OK in Spartanburg

The $18.2 million redevelopment of Spartanburg's Morgan Square has received its final nod of approval by city council, with construction set to begin in the new year. The redevelopment will increase the square's footprint by 30%, transforming the heart of downtown Spartanburg. The redesign will include more trees, two water features, a small stage for performances, and about 30% more total space, as previously reported by the Spartanburg Herald-Journal . It will also expand pedestrian access by permanently closing West Main Street and East Dunbar Street to traffic around the square. At a Nov. 9 meeting, Spartanburg City Council gave final approval to the funding plan for the project, which will come from obligation bonds paid for by the city's 2% hospitality tax on prepared food and drink. The city has paid for several capital projects, including the St. John Street public parking garage and the Dr. T.K. Gregg Community Center, using the same funding mechanism, according to communications director Christopher George. Spartanburg resident Andy Draght spoke in support of the Morgan Square project on Nov. 9, recalling sitting in the square when he and his wife decided to move to the city. “It’s already a special place, just the

Walking tours will give Spartanburg residents up close look at zoning

City of Spartanburg residents will have the opportunity to learn more about ways the city might revamp its zoning regulations by taking part in "Sidewalk Conversations" guided walking tours on Nov. 14. A tour of the Union Street corridor and Converse Heights will take place from 8:30 to 11 a.m. A second tour will take place from 1 to 3:30 p.m. and cover and the North Church Street and South Converse areas. The tours will begin and end at the city administrative offices at 295 East Main St. Buses will take participants to the walking tour locations. The idea is to give residents perspectives on development patterns of the past and how they might apply to future city planning, said city communications manager Christopher George. George said the city's zoning ordinance hasn't been updated since the late 1990s. Other regulations have been in place since the 1970s, including larger residential lot sizes in keeping with the era's norms for suburban development. With input from residents, leaders will consider whether future zoning rules should allow additional areas of the city to have smaller residential lot sizes or mixed-use development projects.
