Senior executives of The Cliffs Communities and the Gary Player Group recently celebrated another milestone of their partnership by turning the first earth on the construction of the new Black Knight North American headquarters at The Village within The Cliffs at Mountain Park. Mountain Park is a 5,000-acre private residential community located on the southernmost edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains, in the heart of the quality-of-life corridor known as the Carolina Preserve.

“We are looking forward to being able to bring our clients from around the world to visit us at Mountain Park and really showcase what we do,” said Marc Player, Chief Executive Officer of the Gary Player Group. “We will play golf on a course we have designed; work out at the Player Wellness Center; present our products and services at our new offices and introduce them to our real estate activities in the Gary Player Estates… one-stop shopping all within walking distance.”

Designed by Freeman and Major Architects and built by Trehel Corporation - both of Greenville, South Carolina - The Black Knight North American headquarters will span 12,000 square feet across two stories in the heart of The Village at Mountain Park. The vision for The Village is a vibrant community gathering place made up of sidewalk cafes, an outdoor outfitters shop, other high-end retail, and innovative live/work spaces. The facility, to be completed by the Summer of 2008, will combine modern design components with an Old World flair.

Inside Gary Player’s new corporate headquarters, state-of-the-art technologies will be woven throughout a contemporary, open office plan complete with display walls and a trophy room displaying all of Gary Player’s historical career documents and trophies from a lifetime of achievement.
