Cool at Last

Posted on April 11, 2006 By Tom No Comments on Cool at Last
Local, Miscellaneous

James Shannon has written one of the best descriptions of the current state of "coolness" in Greenville that I have read in a long, long time.  Appearing in the latest edition of The Beat, Shannon’s article presents a positive, yet honest assessment of our city.

Greenville is cool. Against all odds, we are cool at last. Sure, there is a lot of work still to be done, but let’s just say it. We cool.

The style settles down a bit from there.  Shannon’s verbal tour of Main Street does highlight just how much the city has to offer.  I think his vivid descriptions are should be in the recruiting arsenals for any company in the area trying to hire someone.
