i love how  they're going for the all out trashy look on the LU building.  Charlotte's new Christmas tree.

 

 

It’s typically all one color.  Will be rockin Memorial Day colors for a couple days.

Relax. I’d say they will keep it one color 99% of the time, but let them play around with it.

In Independence Park is the Lillian Arhelger memorial:

Beautiful photos, from one Clemson guy to another. Thanks for all of the drone pics in each thread. Really helps in watching all of these new developments grow.

I know that RDF doesn’t like this website, but it’s a nice photo.

It may be old, but it’s a nice photo.  Nonetheless, they should hire GMan and his drone,

This is the only reason I don't have any Charlotte Skyline art, I'd have to get an artist to add each building, as its built, which I imagine would get expensive.

Back from the sun soaked beaches of the low country back in the QC and snapping photos like a mother.

Today all angles and including one I did by mistake an ode to @SpiritOf76 and that needs no introduction but here is a hint "Jukebox"

stopped traffic on 77 southbound makes great photo opportunity. 

[SpiritOf76]

People mimic my style then claim it’s a “mistake”haha. I really like the clouds reflected in the windows

The roof top of Garrison at Graham sure has one stellar view of the skyline.

Hey @Seabrooke this is a great shot! So crucial. 

[tozmervo]

Can anyone identify the tree species they've planted along Brevard in that shot?

Random photo tour from my day, tried to find some spots for you guys that I haven’t seen on here. Photos are from 25th st station, the new food hall being built near parkwood, southend,  and rail trail.

This photo makes me feel very small. Standing at the foot of bohemian last weekend, I marveled at how large it is. Then you see it in this imagine with everything else in context. Then again Bank of America Corporate Center is 145 of me tall.

Subtle light accents make for a classic look tonight via WSOC

Compared to last night’s less than subtlety

Throwback Tuesday and skyline shot from the mid 1970s.  As signage is being talked about elsewhere on UP look at the signs in this postcard from my vault.  There is a big NCNB, big ACC (American Commercial Credit) and big Jefferson First Union signage on the buildings.

With the exception of probably Austin, has any other city transformed it's skyline  in the last 30 years like Charlotte?  Maybe Miami?

In the southeast and south Charlotte is definitely in the top 3 cities with a changed skyline when you start counting buildings.  Austin has had a lot high rise hotels and residential and some office but Charlotte is more office towers.
