Read excerpt
SPARTANBURG — Walking west along Main Street heading out of downtown Spartanburg, past the construction and the train tracks, a creek can be spotted through overgrown foliage amid vacant lots and empty buildings.

When the city’s Barnes & Noble location closed in early 2025, company officials said they were looking for a replacement. “It's not goodbye, just see you later!” the store said in an Instagram post.
