Giant Snowman Back in Beaufort
 | By Edward Dukes Read more of Edward's posts |
The giant snowman is here. No other symbol better signifies the arrival of the holiday season in Beaufort than the inflation of a three story high snowman, surrounded by Christmas trees. The giant snowman is easily found on Lady’s Island, just across the bridge from downtown, but hurry because once the trees are gone - they unceremoniously deflate the frosty fellow and pack him away until next year.
The snowman’s water views are similar to what the residents of Hamilton Village will enjoy - this new condominium development overlooks factory Creek and the waterway. Forty units are planned and the first of three buildings is moving along very well. This is a product that the market has been asking for - Beaufort has very few luxury condominiums located in or close to downtown - the location here will allow residents to walk, bike, boat or drive into town in minutes. Pre-sales have gone well and the next building will no doubt be coming out of the ground in the near future.
In other real estate news about town, the City is working with the Housing Authority on the possible relocation of residents of the Marsh Pointe affordable housing complex to make way for a new theater and conference center. The waterfront four-acre parcel is adjacent to Beaufort Town Center and is prime and ideal for this type of redevelopment.
