Projects & Construction:
This week: We have two new breweries to talk about and a new skyscraper proposal!
So... what would this thread be like if someone who lived in the area took-over the updates, sharing their own photographs? I'm guessing it would look similar to this. I took photographs while visiting another city, just three counties away, on business. I'm guessing it took only an hour or two? Remember: If you are interested in taking-over the weekly updates on this thread, you can't use photographs from the local newspaper. That is why you don't even see their publication's name posted here.
351 North Patterson:
An exciting new skyscraper proposal to follow! It appears as if this office/retail project could reach 12 floors and, according to someone at the WSTB Forum, it will have underground parking. An announcement is expected soon and that will allow us to confirm all of the details. The building will have office space for tech companies and retail fronting Bailey Park on Fourth Street. No rumors or details on any tenants, at this time.
Link Apartments Innovation Quarter:
Workers are already pouring columns and loading-bearing walls for the second floor.

The construction fence is up and workers have a demolition permit. They have also applied for a construction permit (foundation). This building could appear on our first post construction list in the next month or two?

Mutts Whine and Bark:
A new 20,000 square foot indoor dog park and bar, with enough room indoors for dogs to run & exercise, is planned for downtown Winston-Salem. They also plan to have an outdoor space and medical records on dogs, so you can see if other dogs are up-to-date on shots.
Ambulatory Surgical Center:

Top Markets for Home Sales:
And the tech boom continues... The National Association of Realtors has forecast Winston-Salem to rank 37th in the nation in home sales in 2018. They also forecast Winston-Salem to see a 3.21% price increase. Winston-Salem is expected to out-perform several major fast growing metro areas in nation. Winston-Salem is expected to see a higher sales growth than Raleigh and a higher price growth than Charlotte, which is very impressive.
Hotel Indigo:
They have applied for a permit to add the stair tower and kitchen to the south facade of the building. Look for visible work on the south facade, soon!

New Brewery - Gypsy Road Brewing Company:
We have two new breweries to report on. One of these is Gypsy Road Brewing Company. Not many details at this time. This brewery is very early in the process. We do know they will renovate an old mid-century furniture store.
New Brewery - Incendiary Brewing Company:
Brandon Branscome is opening downtown Winston-Salem's newest brewery in Summer 2018. The name of the brewery will be Incendiary Brewing Company and the location is believed to be Bailey Power Plant, but I can't confirm that location.
An artist from the United Kingdom, who is known for "Dark Art," is illustrating the labels:
