Guest Report post Posted June 23, 2020 probably should do a boardwalk or decking that allows water to seep in but protects the tree roots They do all the time in the Lowcountry. It’ll allow plenty of water. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They could use the same material they used for the "crown" of the building. It seems to be 100% permeable. 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KJHburg 68010 Report post Posted June 29, 2020 walk around the block photos today before the Saharan dust thickens. Still want to know if the jewel box retail space is going to be all glass or what? This hotel really turning out nice. Like the mix of individual windows and solid glass. The garage well mama always said if can't say something nice then don't say anything. Please cancel the Crowdfunding my new camera is on its way. 15 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MothBeast 87 Report post Posted June 29, 2020 Is that supposed to be the design for the garage covering or is it still in progress? Seems purposeful either way Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue_Devil 729 Report post Posted July 1, 2020 Maybe this will be some sort of moving projection at night, like that video. I mean we didn't think deck screening would go on, and then it did like TR said it would. Maybe this turns out too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Madison Parkitect 1754 Report post Posted July 1, 2020 Isn't there some kind of NCDOT rule against moving videos right off a highway? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t believe there are any NCDOT restrictions as long as it’s not within their ROW. Also with Ally's translucent band being so high off the ground it’s not within any sight lines of the motoring public, unless drivers intentionally ‘rubberneck’ to see the pretty skyline. Anyone here guilty of that? Edited July 1, 2020 by Hushpuppy321 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
