Hey BNA, thats interesting you made that comment, as the European feel of Greenville is one of the things that made my partner and I choose Greenville as home. There are so many things about Greenville that feel European......the shingle signs downtown, the style of sidewalks, areas of Falls Park, the outdoor seating at the many restaurants, the general attitude.
My partner and I have traveled Europe extensively.....I should post some photos of some of the European destinations side by side with a Greenville shot. You'd be shocked at the similarities. There's one area of Falls Park with the view of downtown and every single visual cue feels exactly like one of the parks on the river in Prague. I may do a thread like that if I get time.
