  1. There are actually two Multifamily buildings in development. I designed that map above, there's an updated one, I'll see if I can get approval to post it.
  2. For reference on just how off they are. As far as rendering timing goes, I was told to check back late spring, early summer.
  3. So just for context a 31 floor building will be around 10 floors parking and 21 floors residential (I know, that's terrible, but its reality) at around 10.5-11.5 feet per floor on average. So we are looking at 325-356 feet. TOD technically caps building height at 300, but you can probably cheat it up to 350. So to to extrapolate how tall it will be, lets compare it to Dimensional Fund's tower. DFA is 180 feet, so this will be less than twice the height of DFA. This would place the tower just under the horizon in the photo that @j-manposted.
  4. Good lord people, how don't you understand. CHARLOTTE STORIES IS FAKE NEWS DO NOT READ IT. They make up sensational stories, and embellish everything for clicks and traction. This would represent a 50+ floor building, they do not know what they are talking about.
  5. They have been quietly shopping this building for 2.5 years, I would guess they have someone in mind too.
  6. Is it possible, sure. Would it happen? probably not. Push comes to shove you'd likely have to find homes for the Urgent Care and Office Depot within your building as they have longterm leases. Theres also 4 different owners on that block.
  7. Interestingly South End is going to run out of land very soon, so you will start to see apartment buildings from a couple of cycles ago start to get replaced. I met with someone this year who said they were approached about tearing down a South End Multifamily building to replace it with a couple of towers.
  8. It's as good as gone. Price for this land is so high now that its enigmatic owner is talking to a high rise residential developer out of the Windy City.
  9. Theres still steel going up, its just structural steel and light gauge aluminum framing.
  10. Subscribe to the Charlotte Ledger and you'll know everything going on in South End! And a new one is coming soon at Design Center #2
  11. all about the angle you shoot it at. It looks exactly like the renderings.
  12. Owner would owe half of the proceeds of the sale to his ex-wife and would rather die than see her get the money. He's in his 90s I believe. He also owns 60% of the buildings between Sugar creek, Anderson, North Davidson and the Train Tracks =
  13. I think that Raleigh gets really excited and calls master plans "proposals" when really the only reason things are listed as 20,30, and 40 floors is that's the extent of what zoning allows in most cases. In most cases, none of these are planned out buildings, they are "visions" to market Raleigh and it's various pie in the sky ideas, just like Queen Park is here. The things that are on Charlotte's wiki, which is not even close to updated are towers, are sure things. I have a list of 61 towers planned in Charlotte over 17 floors, 13 of them are over 30, and most of them are more realistic than the ones listed above. Also worth noting that the "Carolinas DevelopmentTower, listed on that site, is not on my list, because that building was never a realistic proposal.
  14. They own a decent bit of land actually, almost an acre between the fronting building and the rear greenhouse, and you should probably ask yourself, "hmmm, its been 2.5 years since Mr. Ks closed, and the new owner hasn't done a thing with it yet, wonder what's up,"
  15. Jessee Campbell's from what I understand.
  16. It'll be live for free at some point, just not sure when. my story is 2,100 words :-)
  17. the one's with ? marks are mostly people that didn't answer my email. I'd say 5/8 are definitely happening.
  18. The hotel isn't an upside-down M, and it hasn't been cancelled. Just subscribe to Charlotte Ledger and look in your inbox in the morning.
  19. Here are the full images, I did the carousel because the images are so wide.
