North Myrtle Beach ~ Towers on the Grove tabled, Beachwood sent to Planning Commission

The 100 foot wide city park proposed for the Towers on the Grove project in North Myrtle Beach was tabled because of concerns about density at the project. Previously, the developers had reduced the number of units from 733 to 720. But council compared the density of units in Towers in the Grove with a much larger development and found that Towers had a much higher unit density.

After modifying the Beachwood project for density, access and transitional heights the North Myrtle Beach Council approved the project and sent it back to the Planning Commission for review based upon these changes.

Council wanted assurances that the Town Center would be in phase I to avoid the problems encounter with Barefoot Resort’s Town Center which was in later phases and struggled to be viable.
