A troubled student housing development built north of the Tar River in the mid-2000s can now be rented as market-rate apartments following a vote of the Greenville Board of Adjustment on Thursday.
The board voted 6-1 to amend the land use intensity permitting, also called LUI, of the complex known at various times as North Campus Crossing and Paramount 3800 so it can now operate as a traditional apartment complex.
