GREENVILLE, S.C. (WSPA) – Two new projects promising nearly 200 new, affordable, apartments, as well as a third project to preserve 101 apartments for low-income seniors have been approved by local officials.
According to the City of Greenville, the new developments, known as Southside Senior I/East, and The Alliance, will be located at West Washington and South Hudson Streets, and Laurens Road and Ackley Drive, respectively.

Southside Senior I/East is expected to have 93 new units specifically for senior citizens living in the 20- to 60-percent area median income range. Work on the project is expected to begin in January.
The Alliance will feature 100 rental units, also serving the 20 – 60-percent area median income range.The development will also include new business developments along Laurens Road. Work on the project is expected to begin in spring 2025.
