This old machinery is located on an empty lot on 708 South Main Street. The building was torn down because it was structurally unsound and could not be salvaged. Some of the original bricks were preserved and are still on the lot, along with this machinery. The hope is that some of the original bricks will be reused when the site is developed. Last summer, the lot hosted a “Saturday Local Artist Market”. The church in the view is Second Presbyterian.

The rain stopped, the clouds begin to clear, and the crowds came out to enjoy Artisphere in downtown Greenville. We enjoyed artist row, a meal from Smoke on the Water, and listen to blues played at the Bi-Lo stage. That was in the afternoon. We went out in the evening and listened to Susan Tedeschi play at the Peace Center Amphitheater. Personally I think Susan’s music is very reminiscent to Janis Joplin.

Today’s photo introduces Shawn and Shawn .. they run the Greenville Vacuum Center in the Historic West End of Greenville. Both had big smiles when we took this photo.

Today’s photo shows a lamppost backlit by the sun in the Historic West End of downtown Greenville … The exciting news about the West End is the newly opened West End Movies dedicated to showing classic and independent movies.

The FYI center opened recently in the Historic West End of downtown Greenville … Their website says the FYI is a partnership with Furman University and the YMCA “the center is free to all currently enrolled high school students … weekly events, presentations, and programming for the Greenville community”.

As a follow-up to my recent post showing The West End Association mural I thought I should share a photo of the building the mural depicts. You may also remember this previous photo showing the Nexus of Light sculpture shown in today’s photo.
