Spindle

By Mike Nice on April 30, 2019

This sculpture by artist Blessing Hancock is located in the Village of West Greenville plaza near the Anchorage restaurant. It was created to honor the 15th anniversary of the Artisphere art festival. Titled ‘Spindle’, it is modeled after the spindles in textile mills of the past. The internal dynamic colored LED lighting adds a distinct character at night.

The metal surface is composed of words supplied by residents about Greenville. At night their shadow spells out words on the ground.

The Camperdown Apartments Tower Crane was dismantled

By Mike Nice on April 23, 2019

A very large crane was placed on Falls St that was closed for the operation on April 22. It reached over the new building to the west side and took the tower crane down piece by piece. At 10:00 the horizontal pieces were all removed and when I came by at 12:30 the final tower piece was being unloaded by the crew.

This mural by Jason Craft is in the Bank of America building lobby off of One City Plaza. It is a rendition of the main features in the heart of Greenville. It is 20 feet high, and the standard wall socket in the lower right is a good indication of the scale.
