Stanley Martin Homes LLC is pressing deeper into Greenville's urban core with a wave of new residential permits totaling more than $2.8 million in combined valuation, according to city records issued over the past week.
The largest single permit, valued at $2,143,632, covers an eight-unit residential building at 0 Westfield Street tied to the Gibbs Street corridor. Issued May 19, the commercial building permit describes an eight-unit structure that includes sprinkler and electrical rooms for the entire building, spanning lots 9 through 16 with addresses at 144A Gibbs Street, 144B Gibbs Street, and 140B Gibbs Street. Stanley Martin Homes is listed as both owner and contractor on the filing.
Days later, on May 20 and May 21, the city issued five additional residential building permits for new townhomes on Broad River Street. The addresses run consecutively from 3 Broad River Street through 11 Broad River Street, covering lots 1 through 5. Each townhome carries a permit valuation of $109,591, bringing the Broad River Street cluster to roughly $547,955. A sixth Broad River Street lot is referenced in the story data but does not appear among the issued permits as of May 25.
Taken together, the six issued permits represent at least 13 new residential units and a combined construction value of $2,691,587. All six permits carry an "Issued" status, meaning construction can proceed immediately. Stanley Martin Homes, a regional builder with operations across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast, is serving as its own general contractor on every filing.
The Broad River Street townhomes and the Westfield-Gibbs multifamily building sit in different parts of the city, suggesting the builder is pursuing multiple infill opportunities simultaneously rather than concentrating on a single neighborhood. The Gibbs Street project alone accounts for roughly 80 percent of the total permitted dollar volume.
The permits matter because they mark one of the larger single-builder residential pushes in Greenville's recent permit records, adding 13-plus units of new housing stock to the city's urban core in a single week of filings.
