About Aiken's Downtown Aiken

It is below freezing here in the sunny South today (as well as most of the country).

Take a look at our frozen fountain! With the pansies in FULL BLOOM, isn't that crazy, lol.

It isn't going to get above freezing for the next couple days - so I guess our lovely fountain will be frozen for awhile :(

It might be cold here - but it is still the most beautiful city I have ever lived in.

I wasn't born here but Aiken sure feels like home - come see for yourself! What are you waiting for?

Quick post here to update you on the progress next door. I saw someone walk by my window earlier....and it was a surveyor and his 'helper'.

It was super cold this morning....brrrr....better him than me being out there, haha.

He was here and gone so fast I didn't have time to catch his name - or company name. You know how I like to give a little free advertising :)

Well, maybe he just went to get some hot cocoa or something and he'll be back - I really don't know.

Either way - we are another step closer to the construction beginning! !

Since I don't have the surveyors info --- you can check out the builders website: Stevens Builders

Get in now on pre-construction prices!

Park Place!

2 bedroom/2 bath, 1500 sq ft - $429,000. (three units available)

This is one of those downtown Aiken events that we wait all year for! Dealers and collectors from across the country are at this one! If you are new to town, you don't want to miss it.

Come downtown and take a look :)

It has been pretty quiet next door, until I saw some action this morning! It was Mark - and he was marking the underground utilities - yaaay.....this means we are moving forward :)
