The
Berkley Place, Sea Turtle Cinemas, a 12 screen movie
theater, is the area’s largest cinema. Five buildings
surround the theater, each two or three stories tall, with
retail and restaurants on the ground floor and offices
above.
The Berkeley Place developer also plans future
phases of construction that include more retail space just
south of the cinema. The shopping plaza eventually will
house about 70,000 square feet of retail and restaurant
space, with as much again earmarked for office space.
Buckwalter Parkway also will be the site of a
300,000-square-foot technology park facility, with more
than 1 million square feet of retail and restaurant space,
a hotel and multifamily apartments. The park will bring
125 new jobs with a payroll of nearly $5 million,
according to the Greater Beaufort-Hilton Head Economic
Partnership. The $8.9 million project, known as the May
River Technology Park, will inject about $10 million into
the state's economy, according to the partnership. |
