Power lines. Creosote poles. Street lights hung precariously on wires at intersections large and small all over town.

Ghastly. Eyesore. Low-rent. Y'all come. So cackalackyish.

The quality of the photo makes it even more of an eyesore. Everything seems to be a blur.

Benjamin Moore's newest color swatch: Hues of Charlotte.

It looks like they're painting the tower balconies in Benjamin Moore's "Banking Beige," seen here:

Could be the picture quality but that looks more white than beige, which might not look all that bad.  I'll hold my judgement until i see the final product.

Charlotte loves her some beige, now she surely does! 

So gracious! So spacious! So gracious and spacious! Amazing!

As much of a hater of Charlotte Beige as I am, this is definitely white and I think will look fine with the finished product.

Sigh. This building is predominately glass and that will be the most visible material to the majority of people who see it. Whether it's grey, beige or some variation the non-glass portion of this building should be something fairly neutral. What did you expect? Some pink neon trim? We all hate the Presley's and most of the SouthEnd apartment buildings but c'mon already...

Thank you....was just going to say this, there really is nothing else you could do with these, would you rather see it brick? Cause that would look beyond stupid.

Yes, like The Encore (Encore?) @ SouthPark. That is a seriously large, ugly building that should have stayed away from the brick.

This is serious? I thought people were just being funny.

Oh, probably....I am sensitive today

Good Lord! Relax. My attempt at humor was directed at new Charlotte development in general: bland and beige. Sheesh.

What delicious photos. I love how imposing it looks right now without electricity. It's nice to see this built, my current fav building., and even nicer to see the incredible speed it is taking shape. Now wheres that new 80 floor tower were all waiting to here announced?

Can someone mark on these photos where we expect this to top out at? Thanks!

Here it is topped out.

I've been trying to visualize this. This helps a lot.

Was at the Panther's Lair, yesterday, and this baby is beginning to really assert itself.

Apologies for poor quality again.

I didn't think you could say "topped out" until the last structural pieces were in place. I ain't seen no evergreen tree up there yet.

About a month late... But this was from the Atlanta game.
