This smart little Neo-Georgian brick building wrapped in brick quoins served the community as a post office and later as the town hall. When the city government left in 2008 the Heritage Museum that had been operating in an old hardware store on Trade Street since its opening in 1996, moved in after a $160,000 restoration. More than 2,600 objects were transferred for exhibit; already in the building was a Works Progress Administration mural from the Great Depression depicting rural Southern life.
The three-story brick Greer City Hall and 12-acre City Park were unveiled in 2008. City Hall includes an entire floor dedicated to public space, with a 4,500-square-foot events hall available for conventions, receptions, and galas. Outside, City Park includes a large fountain timed to music, an amphitheater for public concerts and ceremonies, walking trails, a picnic shelter, and a decorative pond.
