    Highly speculative neighborhoods caught in the beginning stages of development when 2007 rolled around, have been hit hard in the Myrtle Beach area.   Here is but one example of such a neighborhood – Harmony Township, in Georgetown, SC, a quaint, coastal town just South of Myrtle Beach.  Originally zoned for 1,700 lots, it now has about 30-50 Homes built over a fairly vast area.  You can see by the fancy signage and light posts that great intentions were in store for this subdivision.    Now, many of these gorgeous homes are vacant with “For Sale” signs out front.  Some of the homes are 70-80% complete and just rotting away from the elements.   Currently, the MLS displays eight listings - three of them appear to be normal listings; the rest are all distressed properties: two are sho... 07/22/2010

      Morgan Park in Georgetown, S.C. consists of 10 acres, 70% of which is high ground and the remaining 30% is marshlands.

Since the city announced that the recreational facilities will be moved and the boat ramp will be made obsolete by the new Campbell Marine Complex on the Sampit River, many people are wondering how the land will be used?

Earlier this month there was a groundbreaking ceremony for a new Boat Landing on the Sampit River in Georgetown, S.C. The Landing will be named the Carroll Ashmore Campbell Marine Complex in honor of Carroll Campbell, South Carolina's Governor from 1987-1995. Carroll Campbell died in 2005 and is buried in Pawleys Island, S.C. The landing is scheduled to be complete in June 2009 and will feature six boat lanes for putting in and taking out boats and 200 public parking spaces. The need for this new marine complex was sparked by the increasing popularity of fishing. Increased boat traffic has made the current public landing at East Bay Park congested during the peak season. The Sampit River is freshwater at the location of the proposed landing just south of the Sylvan Rosen Bridge in the M... 04/28/2008
