Have you seen this article in the Globe and News? (Canadian news) “Charlotte: The town that Bank of America took down” http://www.theglobea...article1400134/ It’s interesting in regard to the writer’s perspective. However, like in all cases the media wants to make it sound like the game is over and all Charlotteans should just give up and disappear. In my opinion, Charlotte’s future will be based not on the companies we can attract, but the ones we can build.

Still being run by the same folks, are there chances that the food and service will improve?

I don't think Pizza Uno deserves it's own thread, as Im not surprised that it closed. But, didn't see a better place to post this. Anyway, Pizza Uno on the College St side of Three Wachovia is closed. I saw them taking the signs down last Monday. I hadn't eaten there in quite a while but heard complaints from bad service to bad food. It's sad to see another Uptown loss and hope something else fills the space quickly.

Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere: Dandelion Market is scheduled to open in the former Latorre's Restaurant on 5th in December. It's next to Fiji. Walked by yesterday, they have scaffolding out front for renovations. More info: http://www.dandelionmarketcharlotte.com

This morning

More of the tower crane going up today at the UNCC building.

"HELL YEA!!!!" This news makes my day!

I don

They are removing the shorter of the two tower crane

No, No, No, No!.... hopefully this is just a minor issue which will be resolved soon. Im looking out the window at the Vue while typing this and can see at least one person working, or doing something on the 46th floor.

Noticed some activity on the UNCC site. Good riddance to another surface parking lot Photo from earlier today:

There's a similar article in today's Charlotte Business Journal

InitialD, Thank you for posting all the aerial shots! Excellent!

I saw it, don't remember if they used NC or not. Jim was somewhere along 85 and did several snow updates over an hour or so.
