   Emerald Loop Shelter

Emerald Loop RFQ

The Emerald Loop Shelter at Town Common is one component of the larger Emerald Loop Vision Plan. Conceptually, the Emerald Loop is a necklace connecting Greenville’s existing and envisioned cultural gems, while simultaneously bringing together the city’s neighborhoods and community. More literally, the “Loop” is a multimodal circuit encouraging pedestrian traffic within the inner loop and vehicular traffic on the outer loop.
