FRONT ROW: informal reviews PACE JEWELERS MIXED-USE Frank O’Brien of O’Brien Commercial Real Estate presented a plan for a mixed-use development at the corner of Pendleton, Irvine, and Branwood streets in the Village of West Greenville. A parking lot and the current Pace Jewelers location sit on the property owned by Steve Pace. The plans call for razing the store and building a less-than 40-foot-tall development that would include a new 1,800- to 2,000-square-foot Pace Jewelers location, a space for an additional retail tenant, and 14 apartments above. Two of those units will be two bedrooms while the remainder will be studio lofts. The required parking for the development will be an angled lot between the new development and the former We Took to the Woods candle shop. O’Brien said it’s Pace’s goal to invest in the community that has supported his business for 60 years and provide housing in the Village at a price point that “should be palatable for the target market.” The DRB panel urged O’Brien to communicate to the architect the need to look at the playfulness of the exterior paint colors used in the Village and use that as inspiration for the design. The basic rendering presented to the panel was not detailed enough to make many judgments, they said, but they liked the idea of the development on the corner of the area’s main retail corridor.
As we come into the giving season, make a lasting impact by giving the gift of life. When you donate blood, you give a piece of yourself.
You give Life.
