most uptown condos rent around $2 a sq ft so 2500-2700 a month maybe depending on floor.  

This stonewall station penthouse is $5.80 a sq ft which is extremely high per square for Charlotte and something like that would be even more in NYC brand new of course. 

On the money

$15k/mo

I like it! I like it in person too!

I think the size is appropriate as well.

It reminds me of the "starry night" by van Gogh...

I'm okay with it, but I have a lot of concerns. The Elevator tower in the middle seems to still be shown as cinderblocks, they will be screening the "back of house" loading docks just with landscaping on the hill, and paint, and despite what every single rendering has shown, will not be screening facing stonewall.

That is very upsetting!  I know the garage is not very visible from street level along stonewall but it will still stick out like a sore thumb when viewing form higher up.  I mean, why the hell even show screening on the renderings when you have no intention of doing it, that's very misleading.  I'm sure they will say it was value engineering but I'll go ahead an call BS on that, they new from the beginning that they wouldn't do anything  on this side of the building.  Shame on them.

They should be covering the open parts of the garage soon

I thought 18,000 sq ft would cover most and it looks like it will. Could it be more? Maybe but I'll take it. This is pretty bold for the Charlotte most people know.

Stonewall Station various angles today.  That Home2Suites is really slow going up. Whole Foods is looking great. 

[AuLukey]

Forgive the terrible picture. But I’m glad they’re covering the open parts of the deck. This is awesome looking in person. I wish this is what they would do with the deck at 230 South Tryon.

[KJHburg]

Stonewall Station today.   Think of the pedestrian activity this Whole Foods will generate.  Plus the hotels.  when is the stack a shack prefab hotel going to start? 

[KJHburg]

Couple more of Stonewall Station today and the WonderWall or whatever that art installation is called.

I couldn’t help but think of you guys complaining about the Great Wall of Charlotte aka the back of this project when I drive past Richmond and it’s nothing but these decks bordering the highway 

[SydneyCarton]

The WF looks fantastic, and the landscaping is good too.

Sunday evening update of the Artwork. I may have edited this photo to be a little more “dramatic”.

Just wtf is the point of all this in that spot? Is it not going to be 100% blocked by the second hotel?? So e’ffing dumb and what a waste.

That is what I was wondering.

It is not going to be 100% blocked by the second hotel. The point is to try to provide as much screening as possible to an otherwise horribly ugly parking garage fronting a major traffic corridor and entrance to uptown. The cost seems worth it to the developers. 

[Nick2]

Much of the parking deck will be blocked by the hotels from the view of Stonewall.

Making progress... the colors really pop on a bright day.

Stonewall Station today from several angles. 

[Crucial_Infra]

^^ Wow the rippled shadow effect of the wanderwall in those first two pics is pretty intense. First time I've seen that documented so well in photos. 

[KJHburg]

Uptown will be changed forever come this Wednesday with the opening of the first full sized grocery store.   All angles and I went under some construction walkway between the Home2Suites and the main parking garage and came out right under the art installation.  Up close and personal.  Today and it looks like the 2nd hotel is getting ready to get cranking as they were doing foundation pilings.

It looks good, no doubt, but I just pray to god they paint the rest of that cinderblock some sort of color.
