  1. I've actually thought for awhile that this piece of land would be awesome for a new koger center/performing arts space. It may be a bit small, but I'd love to have a beautiful space like the Peace Center on that property...plus, the Koger Center as a building and as an arts space just doesn't cut it...

  2. I apologize if someone has already answered this, but who knows what is going into the space at the corner of Gervais and Pulaski, which was once Carolina Wings? On a similar note, I noticed today work is being done at the corner of Gervais and Park for the arrival of a Panera Bread.

     

     

    That's the twin peaks: http://www.twinpeaksrestaurant.com/locations/ 

     

    I've never been to a twin peaks, but they seem to be an ok fit for the Vista. I've driven by the one in Buckhead in Atlanta, and seems to be a good fit there. 

  3. I think the Cupertino, CA Aloft looks more like what I would like to see, classic with a little modern, and this is a 4 story hotel for comparison--

     
    I don't think DDR would let a hotel like this, but wanted to show it because its a 4 story Aloft hotel--Birmingham, AL

     

    The Lexington, MA Aloft is 5 stories, but has a good bit of brick and may fit in

    The historic Clarion Hotel Downtown will change its brand, add capacity and undergo a facelift, its owners announced Tuesday.

    The hotel, located at 1615 Gervais St., will convert to a Hilton Garden Inn/Home2 Suites and increase its lodging capacity to 230 rooms, owner Rick Patel said in morning news conference. The hotel also will add meeting space and get a facelift for a more modern look.

    Staff at the hotel will double to 150 employees, officials said, with opening day planned in January 2016.

  5. Construction is about to start on the new Journalism School, right across from the Education building. This is a big step toward converting the Colisum into a second student center a la Russell House. The renderings look awesome.
