  1. Embassy Suites - Uptown Charlotte
  2. Seems this petition is popular. I signed yesterday at 125. It is now at 203.
  3. Accela says 3-story building. Did they shrink the project?
  4. Maybe it's just a PA thing, but here are 2 fire houses converted to restaurants that I know of in PA Philly: https://www.google.com/maps/@39.9673,-75.173211,3a,75y,186.7h,92.31t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sJv1sDFW1-iamcOtFGxoGMg!2e0!6m1!1e1 Harrisburg: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.263707,-76.887797,3a,75y,235.48h,93.21t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1soE0IglV6b9ChU-ZMUW6OXg!2e0!6m1!1e1
  5. I went to their Ballantyne location, which according to their site is moving to a larger space in Ballantyne, and I thought it was very tasty.
  6. Capitol Towers - SouthPark
  7. Are they still planning on building a new facility outside of the city? I was thinking Huntersville, but I might be wrong. I thought it might be similar to the Greensboro Aquatic Center.
  8. Are they going to keep the Pepsi building, or will they raze it? I think it has a unique look to it.
  9. The new Conference Drive overpass acts like a pedestrian bridge over Independence, but I still see people trying to cross Independence on foot, which scares me when I see it.
  10. I like this quote from this article: "Cities work best when designed for the people who live in them, not the people trying to get through them as quickly as possible."
  11. Fury 325 has been topped off: http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2014/12/04/5361352/carowinds-tops-off-new-fury-325.html#.VICan8kgBJ0
  12. Novant Health Thanksgiving Parade listed as one of the best Thanksgiving parades in the US, according to Lonely Planet. On the same list as NYC, Chicago, Philadephia, Detroit. http://www.bizjournals.com/charlotte/news/2014/12/01/charlottes-thanksgiving-day-parade-named-among.html
  13. Recent construction on Meridian Place along Monroe
  14. Meridian Place - CLT 3
  15. Meridian Place - CLT 2
  16. I was actually thinking it was that, but 1. I didn't know if it actually lit up, and 2. I couldn't tell if it was a light pattern or a video screen. Thanks!
  17. Maybe someone can help me with this. I found the WBTV Tower Cam (http://www.wbtv.com/category/273331/wbtv-tower-cam) in this thread. Every time I look at it at night, I can see lights or a screen flashing, but I can't figure out where it actually is. I circled it in red in this pic, but if you watch the webcam, you can see it flashing/moving.
  18. Going vertical at Meridian Place!
  19. Meridian Place - CLT
  20. Has anyone heard of anything with the James Polk building at 500 W. Trade? Seems to be empty.
  21. When I first saw this, I was worried that they would tear down the Asian library. It seems like something unique, which would be shame to lose.
  22. Not sure how many people would be in my situation, but I live out Monroe Rd and if the streetcar would open today, I would park somewhere nearby (probably at the Met), walk to the streetcar, and take that to Uptown. I've parked many times at the Met and walked to Uptown, instead of paying for parking Uptown. Maybe I am the only one.
