Things To Do
Falls Park on the Reedy
If you ask for directions and someone tells you, “Down at the park,” they probably mean Falls Park on the Reedy. Even though it is by no means our only or biggest park, it's often considered the heart of Downtown, created in what is generally considered the very spot where Mr. Vardry McBee erected his gristmill (where grain is ground into flour). To turn the wheels of progress, Mr. McBee needed running water, and the Reedy River had it. Overhead, the 345-foot expanse of the remarkable Liberty Bridge connects Downtown to the West End as much as it does our past to our present. Spanning the Reedy River, there is literally nothing like this bridge in the rest of the Western Hemisphere. Built to reveal the falls and stand like a sculpture, the concrete reinforced deck has a distinctive curve and is supported by a single suspension cable with supporting cables on the outside.

Mice on Main Scavenger Hunt
In a lot of cities, the last thing you want to see is a mouse. This isn’t the case in Greenville, where nine bronze mice have taken up permanent residence along our celebrated Main Street. Conceived as part of Jim Ryan’s high school senior project (back in 2000) and inspired by the children’s book Goodnight Moon, the mice were brought to life by local sculptor and illustrator Zan Wells. Author Linda Kelly joined the team, and “Mice on Main” has become a beloved Greenville institution—from the scavenger hunt to the children's book, board game, and T-shirts. Using the clues to hunt for each mouse makes a stroll along Main Street extra fun for kids of all ages. Greenville’s bronze mice are spaced out on one side of Main Street or the other, from the Hyatt Regency to the Westin Poinsett. Use the clues to find all nine mice! Happy hunting! 🧀
