Other Side of the Moon Brewery:
Are you ready for another brewery! T.J. Anzulewicz, who worked for Small Batch Brewing on Fifth Street in downtown Winston-Salem, is now working on a new brewery called Other Side of the Moon. He said to expect beers such as Kolsch and citrusy IPAs, along with monthly and seasonal beers. The seasonal beers will be released on days when the moon is full. The brewery should be open by Spring 2018. The beers will be distributed to multiple cities across the state.

Bailey Business Center - Building 23-2: (Bailey Power Plant Complex)
This entire area is a massive construction site, with multiple projects under construction and closed streets & sidewalks. There is now talk of building a new dog park in this area. Great news if you live in this part of downtown and have a dog. If you use Fifth Street: Fifth Street is expected to reopen this week (it was closed for a crane), but parts of the sidewalk will remain closed due to construction.

Hall of Justice - For Sale?
Are you looking for a development opportunity? This site and building will be sold when the new Forsyth County Courthouse opens. If you're interested, contact the county about this development opportunity. It's a perfect site for a high-rise, since it is between the city's two tallest skyscrapers.

Carolina League Headquarters Relocating to Winston-Salem:
The Carolina League, Class High-A league of professional baseball on the east coast, will relocate their headquarters to Winston-Salem. They are looking at sites in downtown. It would be great if they leased space in the new One Ballpark Center office building or maybe the office space above Fourth & Trade, with the league's logo above Restaurant Row. It would be really awesome to open a league museum on the ground floor of a downtown headquarters. The Carolina League is between Class A and Class AA. A player moves-up from Class A to Class High A (Carolina League), before moving-up to Class AA. Class High A or, as it's sometimes called, Class A Advanced is very similar to Class AA and there are only three leagues (California, Carolina, and Florida leagues) at this level of play, with a total of only 30 teams nationwide. The league is a big part of baseball history in the Carolinas and Virginia.

East-West Expressway Bike & Pedestrian Path:
The State of North Carolina will provide almost $1 million toward this project, in new money. The city must now find an additional $1.4 million to begin construction on the $10 million bike path project that will connect the university medical center with downtown and the IQ District. This bike path will connect with two existing bike paths. Great news for bicycle commuters.
