a large bank vs a single person is not quite the same.

First National Bank has a small market share in NC only in Charlotte and Triangle areas.  It is not a big employer either we are talking about about 100s instead of 1000s of employees here.

Do they not do a lot of other programs? Food Banks? Charities? Habitat for Humanity? Endowments?

Also left out: how much money have individual employees contributed.

This one completely dropped off my radar. Anyone have any updates?

They're waiting for Julius Peppers to retire so that the Panthers mural can be removed, clearing the way for construction.

Some would say he retired 9 games ago...

My speculation is that this site will be under construction between April & July 2019

[atlrvr]

I'd be shocked if not started by year end.

[Hushpuppy321]

I'd hope so but Ground breakings always seem to take longer than expected this cycle.  I believe it's due to construction costs, due diligence and robust economy as High rise's are being built everywhere across the US and skilled labor shortages abound!

Coming soon on this lot and don't worry this one will be built.  Hard to believe such a tall 31 story building will rise here.

It looks VERY squatty in that video.  I think it would look better if the glass started on a lower floor. The wide base and first 6 or so floor material makes it look less sleek than it should.

I actually think it was rendered too short, unless the scope was decreased. Should be nearly the height of 400 South Tryon.

Ya its barely the height of Catalyst.  Isn't it supposed to be 390'?

Building Permits are now fully approved as of last week.  Just waiting for contractor to "pick them up".  This can break ground any day now I believe.

I forgot about this one too. So during the summer of 2020 these towers will be under construction Legacy 2,  Ally Tryon Place, JW Marriott hotel, Intercontinental Hotel, FNB Tower and the just announced Duke Power Tower on S Tryon.   

Some photos of the 22 story FNB Tower rising in downtown Raleigh this week same set up  (office and apartments) but ours in Charlotte is a lot taller.

We’re waiting...

[CLTProductions]

This officially broke ground today.

[Hushpuppy321]

Guess they were just waiting for the Panthers final home game to wrap up.  Definitely glad to see this tower starting construction.  

[navigator319]

Lot is still open and don’t see any action. What broke ground?
