I had to turn my head 45 degrees to the left for the layout to make sense

https://www.wbtv.com/2023/12/19/police-1-dies-after-van-crashes-east-charlotte/ This crash had inbound Independence crawling for most of the day yesterday. A work van collided with the right leg of the gigantic overhead highway signs across the street from Walmart. The passenger didn't make it, and neither did the sign. The humongous sign is currently resting up against the wall inside the Bus Lanes.

The Auto Show is this weekend https://www.charlotteautoshow.com/ Gotta go to the Auto Show!

I wonder if they'll utilize the old pedestrian tunnel that runs under Stonewall / Brooklyn Village Ave right there
-
What if we had a company like Cintra (but not Cintra) build and operate the rail lines for us? I'm sure the fares would be more expensive, but maybe they'd be better enforced(?)
-
I was excited to see the Blimp. We watched the game from an outdoor bar in SouthEnd. Every now and then, people would just start pointing up like "BLIMP!" and we'd all watch it float on by. Good times.

I’m still disappointed by this. There aren’t any fast-casual restaurants or bars around for miles. I feel like a normal B-Dubs would have done well enough here. Maybe they’re changing their business model, and that’s cool. Just someone please open a bar nearby

If that's the Chipotle (I totally see it now), then where is the "BWW Go" supposed to... go
-
The flag pole is a nice touch. I would say I'd like to have one of those Hugos, but they're almost as long as that dumpster and I'm guessing it's a 20-footer(?)

That would have been great for somebody's man-cave

They found that dog Lucy that everybody had been searching for. She's going to be reunited with her family! News story

Any idea what it might have been originally?
-
Up until recently, there was a really detailed scale model of the original entrance sitting beside the stage in Harmony Hall. I haven't seen it this season, but I wondered if that was a part of his original promotional material
-
Looking at the images on Google Maps, it looks like they've recently expanded from one strip-mall space to THREE overtaking the J. Jones Jewelers and the Oriental Massage. They must be doing pretty well
-
That appears to be where Ronson / Kaiser Fluid Technologies used to be on Sugar Creek. My Old Man worked there for many, many years.
-
They're also currently replacing the original Charlotte Coliseum (Bojangles Arena) / Ovens Auditorium sign with a giant video board
-
I'm not in love with this. I feel like a normal B-Dubs would have done well here since we don't have a good bar from Steamers to Boardwalk(?) and there's a Wing Stop right across the street.
-
And are they going to have to re-do any of this in 10-20 years when they start construction on the Silver Line?
-
Another bar/restaurant bites the dust

Roxbury :( -
Are they going to continue construction and possibly connect the bottom end of the LSC Greenway to the Nation Ford Greenway? There's only about a mile gap between them
-
Where's that Lagoon salesman when you need him?
-
I graduated from High School (Summer School) there when it was the Midwood School for Pregnant Girls and Boys Who Can't Read Good. It was a blast! I'm gonna hate to see it get torn down.

Did anybody go to the Silver Line Rail Trail Meeting at the Independence Library last night? How was it?
-
Seriously, what the hell is going on in here?
