IDK if it jas been mentioned here before but today I took a career trip to the Carolinas aviation museum and their president spoke to us. He mentioned that they have plans to move soon to a purpose built building along Wilkinson Blvd as part of a "Front Door" project that the airport is doing that includes hotels amd breweries. They are starting a $30 million capital campaign soon to help fund the move and building within the next 3 years

If you want really cheap parking UNCC doesnt check parking on the weekends from Friday ~7pm to 5am Monday, just go to lot 25 or N Deck and hop on the rail if u dont mind the ticket cost and walk from station to stadium

My pictures from todays game

There are multiple Bird scooters around campus here at UNCC now. I guess they brought them from uptown on the light rail? But they have even less regard for pedestrians than the bikers and skateboarders, so if u need one please come take it from UC to wherever you want it to be that's not here.

Motel 6, they'll leave the light on for you

I'm confused. Where is this 44 story tower going if not at 650 S Tryon? Are we getting a 3rd tower on this site already?

I'll be at Bengals game in 1.5 weeks, hopefully the hurricane wont slow progress down too much and there'll be another floor or 2 built by then

CO has dropped its paywall during thw hurricane, get all that free news you can

Has Charlotte had any tall buildings like 10+ stories been demolished? I feel like tall old buildings are good for a city like ones in WS, GSO, or even the oldies in NYC and it would be a shame if we have lost some

I wonder what BoA is hiding. Are the CEOs secretly lizards? Are the buildings disguised missile silos? Does anybody actually work for them? We demand answers now

They should put a public atrium in the pyramid, tired of not being able to go high in any buildings if i dont work for BoA or Duke

Also half the lights just went off during the game, should probably throw away the whole place

Need a dome over the stadium ASAP, have been forced out 3 times now due to lightning this game

So any chance of pyramid b4 Cowgirls game?

First time back in uptown this semester, got this from the CTC station

UNC Charlotte getting the short end of the stick, lower budget than schools way smaller than us, how are we supposed to become world class if we cant get properly funded. We definately have the lowest per capita funding out of all state schools

I think yall are missing out on something important with this Shake Shack thing. The type of millennial that lives in South End is the same type that loves basic,overhyped chains and trends, SS will do great there and most wont care about any long-standing businesses at all since they just moved into the 704 in the last few months.

But imagine this, the FC Barcelona camp pans out and we start making soccer talent out the wazoo. Imagine having the next Pelè, Ronaldo, or Messi coming out of Charlotte or the Carolinas. That looks good and brings in many people. Also sports players love to give back to their communities and hometowns, have you evrr talked to someone from WS, cant go 3 sentences without them mentioning Chris Paul and how he is from there and does things there. Also a new hub in the city isnt a bad thing no matter what. Also soccer is the worlds sport and may bring moee international attention to CLT if we create talented players regularly.

My favorite part of the light rail. The curve leaving UNCC main station. I like how it is one of the only parts completely surrounded by nature on the entire line Also the Hyperloop is a scam, there is literally no way you could keep a constant vacuum in a space that large unless only 1 group every couple of hours is using it. Elon is only having this plan to boost the value of his Boring Company

I would think CLT-Stockholm would be a no brainer. There is a large Swedish population in NC especially Greensboro because of Volvo Trucks. I grew up there and live there in summer and there were like 100 Swedish students in my high school alone, probably many more in others and many adults with no kids, and they all travel to Sweden regularly. So if someone does start the CLT-Stockholm route they would be rolling in the $$$

Sorry but this was perfect for the spongebob meme

It may just be my lack of architectural knowledge, but that seems like an awfully small plot to build a tower on. As long as it doesnt look like that super skinny thing in NYC I guess it will be ok.

An update on the construction of thr PATS and facilities building. Its looking nice

Im going to show up and ask as many people ad possible if they are KJ before being kicked out

Here at 9pm on a Wednesday students are still using. I was coming back from the store and use the station to cut through to dorms from lot. About 10 students were waiting for it and about 3 dozen disembarked from the train. So even at this late hour the train is getting steady use from the 49ers. Here are 2 photos of it coming in and disembarking(please excuse the quality, took them with 1 hand while holding groceries in the other)
