I am starting a new thread for Charlotte out side the I277 loop. There is a lot of development all around the center city. I will start out with South End with a short photo review.

I guess we'll be seeing a lot of photos like the last one in the nearest future ;)

Great pics. Charlotte's South End looks like it's poised to becoming a "midtown" area of the city (i.e. downtown alternative sort of like Atlanta's impressive Midtown and Nashville's maturing Midtown).
