A grand opening celebration for the Crescent Startup Community saw 125 guests who learned about the history of the space, formerly the Pepsi-Cola Bottling Company. Hartness Development reimagined the campus, now a large-scale mixed use innovation district on Poinsett Highway in Greenville, South Carolina. Dozens of event photos appearing in TOWN Magazine feature many familiar faces to Furman University and The Hill Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, a partner in the project.
