SC Botanical Garden getting New Entrance

The South Carolina Botanical Garden at Clemson University is getting a new entrance, meaning visitors will have to enter the gardens from the Caboose Parking entrance on Perimeter Road. The Clemson University Media Relations Department reports that construction on a new entrance gate began Monday. Once construction is complete, the new entrance off Perimeter Road will be the only way into and out of the garden. Construction of the new main gate is phase 1 and is expected to end in April 2017. Phase 2 will include construction of a gate house. During construction, visitors to the garden should be aware of pedestrians and workers on and around the median.
