The Town of Mount Pleasant could soon be home to a new place to shop, eat, work, and enjoy entertainment.

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

Plans for the space will include restaurants and retail space. | Photo by Synchronicity Land + Architecture via the Town of Mount Pleasant.

The Town of Mount Pleasant 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.

Unless noted otherwise, the Commercial Design Review Board meets on the last Wednesday of each month at 5 p.m. Stay up to date with this and other projects in the town.
