    Photo from my grandpa’s house. Former CFD firefighter and captain. This is now the Domino’s pizza and Devils Logic brewing on 4th street. He doesn’t recall when the picture was taken but likely the 60’s. He is the firefighter to the left with his back facing the camera.

    Did they finally take down the "Now Leasing" banner from the top?

    The September Harvard Business Review offers a substantially longer-range view on corp HQ relocation (but beware the data end in 2017). This time span of data shows Charlotte to have lost as many HQs as the worst-affected rustbelt cities. These data suffer from the small number problem but I would bet Charlotte’s poor showing here is due to the loss of several textile HQs 20 ish years ago (e.g. Fieldcrest-Canon) along with Wachovia. I would think Chiquita would be a wash in this data set. While this would doubtless be a different picture when using a narrower window, or when looking at the size of these companies, it is important to keep in mind that all of us tend to cherrypick data to match our priors. Statements like “San Francisco is declining” might be a hot take, but SF is still where most of the money is.

    That's some interesting data.  What 11 Fortune 500 HQ did Charlotte have in 1955?!  Did we really have as many as Denver, Seattle, San Antonio, DC, and Miami combined??
