    Monday night I saw 2 homeless people sheltering at CLT. One in the new ticketing area, and 1 in the car rental atrium. I feel badly for these people, but I'm shocked that CLT and CMPD are allowing them to shelter at the airport.

    Maybe. There could be quite a bit of leveraging equity from recent home value increases in Myers Park over the last 3 years. But at the 3-4M many of those homes will be paid for with cash. Leads me to believe its people moving from higher cost of living areas taking advantage of their purchasing power. The banks pour a lot of money into local pockets through bonuses, but I just dont see that making up the largest share of demand for these houses being built in the South Charlotte wedge.

    Who is buying these mansions going up around SP? There are so many, and in Foxcroft too. Is it local bankers whose kids are getting older and they are moving up from 3br/2ba Myers Park homes? Or are these out of town relocations from companies like USAA, etc. with expanding footprints? The recent explosion of money in this town is bewildering and impressive.

    I use to walk there all the time from my home off Nassau. Probably hit up that CVS 2-3 times a week when lived in PM. It would be nice for it to eventually be incorporated into a development that nicely supplements the Crosland development.

    I read through the entire thread and may have missed it, but what does Barings have to do with this project? Are they relocating to the office parcel and opening up space in the uptown tower?

    Did I miss this posted somewhere else? I like using a space already used for soccer, but its a low investment infrastructure.

    Its a beautiful building, but I see a missed opportunity orienting the angular top towards Tryon St. and the West, instead of facing East towards Midtown. Driving in Providence, all you see is the guts of the top...having the angular top point East would have give the skyline more girth and intrigue too.

    Will they hold the new development as an asset, or sell the entire block (assuming they purchase the Roberts and Richmond parcel) and let a developer do their thing?

    Edit...this is across the side street from HT...not across Central... _____________________________________ This article from the Observer seems to indicate an office building. See the "More Offices Too" section. https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/business/biz-columns-blogs/development/article247407935.html

    CLT gang, I need less than 500 EQMs to get platinum pro. That is one flight with the 500 minimum EQM per flight. Where is the best website to find the cheapest round trip flight from CLT. Also, any other ideas to get the EQMs other than the buy program?

    Does anyone know when the stoplight and pedestrian enhancements at the intersection of Fairview and Valencia where the Ben and Jerry’s is will be implemented?

    Halls of Charleston?

    Why have they not begun pouring the concrete floors? There are several levels covered now and none have concrete. Seems like it will be much more difficult to pour once the floors are covered.

    Seattle built the Washington State Convention Center over I-5 in Downtown Seattle. With our need for an improved convention center, this would kill two birds with one stone and open up the current convention center site for redevelopment.

    What does OAL stand for?

    Ive always thought Charlotte should get a Formula 1 race to take place on 485. Shut it down and hold the race. On the Agenda today it was announce there will be a 10k on 277. Cool stuff.

    This building looks different from like every angle. Great in the pic above but weird af in this one below. It looks like part of the building is missing!! Someone said it but it’s all about the angles for LU. It will look great at night. On a side note, what is the concrete type material? How durable is it? Is there a big difference in durability versus granite? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Happy New Year. Not a beautiful picture but a reminder that even the worst beige buildings in Charlotte aren’t so bad, and the nice mid rise buildings in Charlotte are really quite nice. Picture of apartments on the Strip in Knoxville TN on the UT campus. While it does have retail, it’s terrible. It’s Soviet in appearance! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
