That view is going to be sweet(er) after the Enterprise and Midnight Diner sites are developed.

Has anything been announced for the Enterprise property? Sorry, it's hard to keep up with so much development!

Last night, Uptown lights reflecting off of the clouds

Imagine taking someone who has not been in Charlotte in the last 10 years down 277 with this view.  All new except for the Westin 2003 and Duke Energy Center 2010 and most built in the last 5 years.   Or even in the last 5 years.    Charlotte the most underrated boom city in the country.

Wait until that hotel is built up there and the views will be great of the uptown and Southend skyline.  And since the new Carson Southend tower is more to the right facing uptown it should have a pretty good view.

Sunset tonight was ridiculous!!

Views from the west side are the best side of the Charlotte skyline.  today.

Was bored enough today to play around with street view today and came across certain blocks in the city where you can randomly find spots of very old street views while going back and forth between updated and not. This particular block is at Stonewall and Brevard

[KJHburg]

someone is going to get seriously lost using those streetviews!

Quite strange rolling in to the QC today on Independence @277 ... a bit eerie in fact.

the Uptown skyline was gone

I've gotta admit - if Uptown's land value tanks, it'll be satisfying to see those land hogs reap the fruits of their holding out.

While I love seeing the rise of Southend we really really really need Uptown to be just as stellar.  Do we want Uptown to go the way of downtown ATL?  YIKES

Oh, I'm definitely on the same page.  I do not WANT Uptown to struggle.  I was speaking in more in a "perverse satisfaction / silver lining in something otherwise tragic" kind of way.  Hopefully it doesn't happen.

That said, I'm curious to see how the office climate uptown changes over the next several years.  If the trend plays out with businesses from deep pocketed industries (banking, tech, etc) moving to these newer, amenities-rich buildings, I wonder if we eventually see older uptown space fill in with smaller or more tight-walleted businesses.  That would imply a downward trend in rental rates, but not necessarily a doomsday situation.  Maybe some silver linings there, too.  I'm a layman in these matters, though.

drive bys and some other shots.  Today the sunny half of today.

I feel sorry for those people that rented/bought in that building that faces the Vantage parking deck!

I don't, they are walking distance to the greatest concentration of amenities, services and fun in all of Charlotte. Views be damned.

Less so for renters. The people who purchased those units should have anticipated their views eventually being obstructed but having that huge garage wall to stare at must really suck. A highrise building I could live with, this though...I agree. They have my sympathy.

Its one of the more affordable buildings in South End to rent these days.

I’m not sure you’ve shared this picture here before but I must say it is stunning. It would be interesting to see this same shot change over the next several years.

Blue & Yellow.

One side of the crown tonight was really flickering from white to blue to purple.
