Today I’m continuing the white theme started yesterday. Actually red and white yesterday and today it is white and white. The building is called Scott Tower and I understand it is managed by the Greenville Housing Authority. I also read that Scott Tower was the first housing for the elderly built by the city of Greenville.

Red dirt and white tower

Today’s photo is of construction work at Logan Park with Scott Tower in the background. Dirt is a rare scene in Greenville. We normally have grass, flowers, and pine needles covering the ground. I’m not sure if the construction is for new housing or a complete rework of the park. Possibly a local reader can provide some insight.

PS: Some Google research has turned up the answer. At the GreeterGreenville website under the haynie-sirrine master plan section I found a document which includes a recommendation to create an important public space to honor the memory of Miss Ellie Mae Logan. The recommendation includes a park and townhouses. The document has detail and drawings for the project. The document also includes a photo of the park before the construction started.

This is the new mouse sculpture in downtown Greenville. This makes the 10th mouse sculpture on Main Street. They are greatly enjoyed by families who go on mouse hunts. For that reason I will not tell where to find this mouse however a hint is that this mouse is next to a statue dressed in similar attire … About the photo. Have you ever seen a mouse shadow before?
