  1. My son and I were going to Ikea the other night from UCB, man what a 'can't get there from here' scenario that is. We almost missed the City Blvd. turn from N. Tryon in the pouring rain.

    They are showing Ikea on there, that's pretty good for most map-making as it only opened recently. Google may be setting the new standard for keeping maps up to date. Microsoft sure isn't with Navteq/Bing.

    Google still isn't showing the new airport area configuration though.

    I hope there are some going on 77.

    Were there any that actually had the words 'Charlotte Douglas Airport' instead of a cutesy little airplane picture?

  2. The color coded roadsigns aka "Vehicular Parking and Wayfinding" for the Center City is on the City Councils agenda for approval on Monday. The signs are expected to be installed by April 2010.

    I work in the facility that makes highway signs and we just got the order for those signs today. Many of them will have the Charlotte crown in the upper left and the color coded N,S,E,W for the cardinal directions to various attractions. There are 39 large (type A) signs of which 23 are split signs (more than 12 feet in height). Some are as high as 19 feet. That is a lot of large signs! It will take a while to build these monsters.
