28th Row has received their building permit and has only a few units remaining. Steel Gardens is in the same boat. Investors are not allowed because of lending laws. The demand for affordable product close to uptown is doing extremely well. I can only hope that developers can continue to offer units for people that only qualify for under $225K. Atlanta for example, over built product $500K and up and now there is a tremendous oversupply. Charlotte will do the same in the next 2-3 years if it isnt careful. The synergy of uptown is causing such a tremendous and welcomed diversity to Charlotte's previously fragile neighborhoods.

Excellent comments and observations. I LOVE the NoDa area and believe that it is the last NoN corporate invaded area of Charlotte. It has 100 year old charm that we have been overly eager to destroy. Boston is fabulous because of the old buildings, charm and character. The new developments should be encouraged and welcomed. Affordable housing close to center city should be built and it getting more and more difficult to find. We should accept and respect Charlotte's neighborhoods as their individual characteristics that make them desireable rather than trying to change everything.

Levines offer to the county will be overturned and 1 of 2 things will happen on July 2: 1. He have to pay more for it. 2. He will lose the property to a person who will develop it immediately. Wish us luck...........

These people have to go somewhere. Do they not?

I hate that it is gone. It really sucks that all the charm is being taken down in NoDa.
