"We chose Charlotte because of its vibrant flair and the great talent pool in the area," said Ryan Azus, the company's senior vice president of worldwide sales...
"Vibrant flair" is not a term you would have seen used as a plausible description of Charlotte 10 years ago, maybe not even 5. Seems like things are starting to build on each other & have a kind of multiplier effect. Great to see.

Went to Party in the Park tonight at Romare Bearden (http://www.charlottecentercity.org/ai1ec_event/party-in-the-park-series/). Good music & the skyline looks great as the sun goes down. Very nice use of the space.

I noticed that work has begun on the old Little Italy location. Does anyone know what is going on with this space? It looks like there is a cool old building under that "rustic" facade but it seems that a demolition permit has been issued for the building.
This place now has a For Sale sign posted. I wonder if the developers were planning to reuse the building, and it was just too damaged to save. Too bad, there was an interesting building underneath all that dark wood. Sign says "build to suit, up to 9,000 sf." I still hope something good ends up here, but less optimistic than I was.

I think filling the former Lee House of Frames space would do a lot more for Plaza-Central's westward march than Salvation Army ever realistically going away.
Completely agree. Always thought that place would make a great neighborhood bar with a great big u-shaped bar in the middle and a pair of nice pool tables in those front windows.

Does the redevelopment in Dilworth Gardens mean that Pio Pio will have to move or close? Love that place, would hate to see it go.

Hard to disagree with putting us fairly low on the list--we don't have a distinctive cuisine/dish & could use more adventurous restaurant options. Asheville & Durham are too small to make that list, but I think they would both rank ahead of us for interesting food right now.
But there's no need to be rude about it. At least they could have given a mention of our growing local beer scene.
