Exciting developments often bring complex challenges, and West Greenville's transformation is no exception. Oksana Veselkova, alongside Clemson University’s City and Regional Planning Department, tackled the ethical balance between legacy and progress. The Woven project, a beacon of change, faced scrutiny as it aimed to revitalize while respecting the area's rich history.   Oksana and the Studio Team utilized a 4C Strategy—Conservation, Collaboration, Connectivity, and Character—which outlined a thoughtful path forward. Through community engagement and careful planning, they navigated the fine line between preservation and development. Now, with approval secured, the Woven project is set to redefine West Greenville's landscape while honoring its roots.   As city planners, we're not just shaping spaces; we're stewards of heritage and champions of progress. City of Greenville, South Carolina stands as a testament to the power of strategic planning and community collaboration. Let's continue to craft cities that thrive while preserving what makes them unique.   Check out Oksana Veselkova’s featured article ‘Balancing Legacy and Progress: NIMBY as the critical barrier in The Village of West Greenville Art District’ at https://lnkd.in/gWXupyK3   Read April's newsletter at https://lnkd.in/gZgzfknZ and join our membership at https://lnkd.in/g-QDV7gZ.
