Not Charlotte, but Monroe. I think this is amazing, fascinating. I am looking fo one about Charlotte. There are films on many towns surrounding Charlotte.

Truly good news, good riddance RNC. The taint from being associated with tRump and the republican party would stick for years. It's taken decades for Charlotte and NC to lose so much of the national perception of a backwards, conservative place. Thankfully, Charlotte is neither. Charlotte has come a long way, she really dodged a big bullet with tRump withdrawing it from here. Thank you, Governor Cooper!

All of these pics you all are posting are amazing. I like that there are angles that I've never seen, almost like another city. I love all the pics with no people that focus on the buildings and street-scape, but I love seeing the human activity and diversity of the citizens.

I think I am more excited about this project than I should be. I think it will look great and I can't wait to see the texture and color it adds.

That's disappointing. The other design was amazing. Now, another generic retro-70's glass box...

Charlottetown Mall was a shopping mall located in Charlotte, North Carolina, right outside what is now Charlotte center city. The first enclosed shopping mall in the Southeast, it opened in on October 28, 1959. Atlanta's Lenox Square opened two months earlier, but it was an open-air mall at first. The mall was situated on a 10-acre (40,000 m2) parcel on the southeastern fringes of Charlotte's "center city" area. Rouse Company was the mall's developers.

That is one of my favorite corners. Beautiful shot! Wow! That makes it all much clearer. Jigsaw!

My mother taught at Myers Park High School in the 50s and 60s. My grandfather had a diner on East Trade in the 30s and 40s.

I love the new Charlotte, I'm obsessed with discovering more of the old Charlotte. Savoy Theatre on 508 S. McDowell St. NOTE: This photo was most likely taken at some point in 1963 because I see a movie poster for "How To Kill A Mockingbird", it was released in 12/1962
