May 8. A new casual living/outdoor furniture and accessories store, Vine by Viridien, will open Memorial Day weekend at 19409 Statesville Road in the former used luxury auto business backing up to northbound I-77.

The 4,000 square foot store, which will have 15 employees, is part of Viridien FHCL Inc. which has more than 60 employees.

The new Cornelius location is a curated concept store where customers can mix and match media and collections to make their outdoor spaces uniquely their own, according to owner Grant Henegan

The former name of Viridien was Firehouse Casual Living.
