    It may be unlikely to happen now, but that door isn’t closed yet. Hundreds of millions down the drain? They’ll give it one more shot.

    Maybe but the fact that the NationsBank Corporate Center was the 30th tallest building in the world when completed was pretty epic.

    Haha I almost added that to my original comment. It was definitely an awkward time for our fair city.

    Raleigh with an 800 footer might look worse than OKC’s Devon Tower dwarfing that city.

    If only York County was in North Carolina, we’d already be more populous than a Georgia.

    Just get it to 600 feet for skyline analytics and I’m satisfied.

    Not sure what is considered “elite” but the 2022 US News rankings of 191 top research medical schools has Duke #3, UNC #24, and Wake #48. https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-medical-schools/research-rankings

    Couldn’t help but notice the map in the Sec of Transportation’s video about Charlotte … oops.

    Confession: reading the phrases “17-county Carolina Core region” and “Greensboro-Randolph Megasite” might have made me blush a bit.

    ^Or don’t! Either way, it’s a great building.

    Walter was a bit of a scoundrel by modern standards. Perhaps that’s the reason for the name change?

    I would concur on the coolness comments. There are plenty of cool people in Charlotte but people don’t move to Charlotte for its coolness. If you want that, you go to Durham/Chapel Hill or Asheville or yeah Richmond. Atlanta’s not cool either. Charlotte is probably the most “happening” city in the state as far as things to do but there are lots of cooler places to live in North Carolina if you know what I mean. Cool is overrated.

    What I would pay to have that and the Truist lights dimmed too.

    Skyline will look something like this in a few years. Please excuse my iPhone photoshopping skills.

    This will really do a lot to tie the South End and Uptown skylines together. We’re looking at <1000 feet between this development and Legacy Union/Ally. I know a cap is years in the future if ever, but it’s more more imaginable with this imo.

    ACC announced its considering moving its headquarters from Greensboro. This is basically Charlotte’s to lose at this point.

    Skyline always looks tough on days like this

    Omg I’m crying at this (NSFW) video that I somehow missed last year. I know you all will recognize exactly where this is.

    Looks like a new pave job on 77

    RIP Mecklenburg air quality cam? https://www.mecknc.gov/pages/PageNotFound.aspx?requestUrl=http://www.mecknc.gov/LUESA/AirQuality/AirQualityData/Pages/visibility.aspx&Referrer=

    Was really hoping Wake and Mecklenburg would pass Fairfax in county population. Fairfax remains the most populous county in the southeast outside of Florida — for now.
  24. Crucial_Infra
    So where does Charlotte rank in most populous cities now? Is it still 15th? Can’t find a link to the new numbers beyond just the top 10 cities.
  25. Crucial_Infra
    Also, Tyrell county is the most threatened county by sea level rise in North Carolina. One of the most threatened counties in the entire US actually. It has very bad days ahead in the coming decades unfortunately.
