I love FP. It’s delicious, but I’d really like to see that land redeveloped.

Doesn’t FP remind you of Two Boots in NYC?

Clear Sky has some new aerials of SouthEnd. It's looking quite dense.

I'd love to own some of their photos. The only problem is they would be outdated in several months time. That's how much Charlotte changes.

I am curious if someone has lived in a newer matchstick palace apartment and also a steel and concrete building can share the anecdotal experience.

“South End” in Donut Developer language

Are these 12 or 17 stories. I keep seeing both numbers tossed around. If only 12 then half the height will go to parking…ugh

We lived in The TradeMark several years ago. I guess that qualifies as steel and concrete .(walls were metal studs I believe)  Heard the moans, giggles and happy screams from every date the meek CPA  neighbor brought back to his pad every weekend. It got old. I finally told him one day, "These walls sure are thin, aren't they?"  Never saw a face turn so red before.   

That's my anecdote.

Lateral noise may be an issue. What about floor-ceiling transmission?

generally the noise in a high rise would be side to side but not floor to floor especially in concrete and steel tower.  In a high rise hotel you hear nothing below or above you but you can hear from side to side.  When in a wood frame hotel 3-5 floors I always ask for a room on the top floor (and tell them I am afraid of low heights)

We lived above Jonathan Stewart and got to listen to him play his piano. Mostly, the sound just travelled by windows and the outdoors.  Very nice family.  He especially. One time he and his buddy deAngelo were playin video games so loud that my wife went down to ask him to turn it down. He was soooo  apologetic. I can't say enough good things about him.

I’m taking your advice
