General News

Gather Mount Pleasant is a proposed multi-million dollar project that will be located near Hungry Neck Boulevard and span 5 acres. It will feature outdoor live entertainment, communal spaces, office space, stand alone restaurants and retail space for small businesses.

The Design Review Board gave the developer the go-ahead as long as a few changes are made to the plans. The board says it wants developers to look closer at the possibility of traffic and adjust plans to avoid traffic congestion.

The development company has the final hearing in August, and if all goes as planned, it plans to break ground this year.
