[Economic Development - Expansions and Relocations]

Not wanting to get political, I live in Georgia and have read the bill because some of the things I heard were bothersome. All are lies in the media about this bill. Its not bad and actually expands voting and the water thing is not true. Read the bill for yourselves. Dont just take my word and definitely not the media's and politicians words. They have a misinformation agenda for sure. The corporations and MLB have caved to the cancel culture

[Charlotte Photo of the Day]

Got a huge favor to ask, I don't hardly post but I've been lurking around since like 2005. Charlotte is my hometown but I have been in Atlanta for 22 years. Tomorrow night uptown is suppose to light up purple for chiari awareness month and i have someone in my life that has chiari. If anyone could snap some pics of the skyline tomorrow night while its in purple and post them I would be forever grateful and would love to share them with my chiari friend and in the chiari group that they are in.....thanks y'all and btw I travel all across America and Charlotte's skyline is one of the most unique and beautiful skylines in America, y'all have come a long way over the years

[Political Digression Thread -- Save UP! Move the politically focused stuff here]

Y'all youngsters in here have no real life experiences of seeing a dictator. Like during the cold war. Anyways im neutral and independent minded and trust me potus is no dictator lol. Voter suppression is not happening, the cut backs at usps were enacted during the Obama administration. These closings and removing of sorting machines has been going on for 10 years and were already pre planed. The press and the hard left are just throwing smoke in mirrors and Trump is doing what he does and that's trolling it. Btw i know what i speak of i work at the postal service. Y'all open your eyes and minds and don't be so quick to yell fire in a crowded theater 

[First Ward Urban Village / North Tryon Vision Plan]

Kind of far fetched Im sure but Levine land in first ward would be prime developement potential for an Atlantic Station type development in Charlotte, in my opinion. I bet over the next 3 to 5 years as investers start hacking away at the potential here that Levine will finally sell out and let this no mans land build out. There is just so much potential y'all have up there in Charlotte that y'all have and trust me there are a lot of folks down here in Atlanta that speak highly of Charlotte and its true potential of being on the same stage as metro Atlanta. Both cities thrive off of each other more than y'all realize I think, and there are many that come from Atlanta to hang out in a different vibe in Charlotte all of the time. Especially on the weekends, I also think when compared apples to apples that uptown Charlotte has way more going on at night then downtown Atlanta does when there isn't a big event or convention in town down here

[SouthEnd Midrise Projects]

Living in Atlanta for 22 years ive seen a lot and Im going to guarantee you that Southend will build out like midtown Atlanta in the next 15 to 20 years and more than likely it will be more dense than midtown Atl with a great mix of midrise and highrises dotting the southend skyline. Atlanta midtown no longer has the potential than what southend has now in my opinion. I think southend has potential of having a way cooler vibe than midtown Atl. Just need to keep crime rates down in southend because crime in midtown Atl is way on the rise and its starting to get a bad rap from folks here in Atl

[First Ward Urban Village / North Tryon Vision Plan]

Hey yall new to post on up, but have been on here for looking time to time for at least 15 years. Anyways atl got a second hand 200ft wheel out of florida and it not affiliated with the city but privately operated and sits right across from sentinel Olympic Park. Its ok cost about 15 bucks a head and the cars are heated and have AC, but the view is not so good where its situated, cant see much of the skyline. In Charlotte this would big a big hit and if I could pick a perfect spot for it would be in the grassy area right next to BB&T Ballpark. Perfect spot with a great view
