Congratulations to United Community! Earlier this year, South Carolina’s largest bank invested $190 million in a custom headquarters in downtown Greenville — our own shining bank on a hill. The stunning six-story office space was designed with the goal of fostering connections among employees inside, while also providing access outside to the many amenities Greenville offers.
This kind of forward-thinking investment has created space for 300 employees to work in the heart of our city, energizing local businesses and contributing to the vibrancy — or “people on the streets” as I like to say — of our downtown.
While United built new office space, others have also recently boosted our business district. Canal Insurance brought some 200 employees to a newly renovated space on Main Street, and Purpose Financial moved its headquarters from Spartanburg to office space in the new mixed-use building in the West End…
