Farmers yes, but also Civil Engineers, Electrical Engineers,  Chemical Engineers, Textile Engineers, Architects,  Computer Science  nerds, Mechanical & Aerospace Engineers, Nuclear Engineers,  Veterinarians,  Teachers, and Business Graduates,.       

 

and as opposed to some at Chapel Hill, students that actually have to go to class. .  

The people in my family are farmers, not everyone that goes to NC State.  Jesus.

Typical NC State fan. Try not to be so salty about UNC.

Took these photos today this is the photo of the day section right just making sure.   Various uptown buildings and shots I found interesting. 

ECU alumnus and  UNC Charlotte alumnus Go Pirates/49ers and I took some classes at  UCLA too Univ. of Charlotte Lizabeth Ave

Can not tell you enough how I think the 300 South Tryon and Kimpton Hotel has added to this city proving  you don't have to be the tallest in town to make a big impact. 

3rd photo is what I call the Wells Fargo Bro's

Waiting and wishing for a BoA twin or something near there and a few 200 footers in south end to fill the horizon.  Who thinks the skyline would be more imposing if Duke was positioned "across the street form BoA corporate?

Two random shots from this evening.

We have one of the best stadium locations in the league. Pittsburgh's is the clear winner in my book, but I'd say we're Top 5. Hard to beat a stadium with a skyline view next to a river. Nashville and Cincinnati have this, but we have the superior skyline. God, I hope we never relocate. #KeepItUptown!

I don't see how Pittsburgh is the clear winner. Its still across a river from the CBD

Heinz Field and PNC Park have unbeatable views. I'll stand by that statement all day.

Only thing it has over Bofa is the river. Century Link has a pretty sweet view too.

I definitely will give Charlotte's skyline the edge over Pittsburgh, but you've got to factor in the river and bridges, too. Just my opinion. Yeah, Century Link is up there. I can't get enough of our location, though. It's something I don't take for granted. Let's hope whatever ends up fronting Mint St. from the LH development isn't disappointing. Tons of potential there to increase the aesthetic.

Take the funicular incline down Mount Washington, walk past the Bessemer furnace display to the Monongahela shore and board a boat that takes several hundred fans around the point and the confluence to a place all can disembark and walk up to the stadium, football or baseball. I have done this.

Wasn't sure where to post this but just saw this new vid from "Charlotte Photo of the Day" fb page. Dude is a passionate Charlottean!!

As a Yinzer, I take umbrage at this comment!!    The views from inside BofA are only good from an aerial view.  From both PNC & Heinz, you get the ground level view.  Well, at least PNC you do.  In Heinz, you have to be on the western side to see any of the city.

That's why I had to mention PNC even though it wasn't in the "league" I was discussing. lol

Grand Bohemian already having an impact.

I've noticed this before but this just reminded me, ever notice how the back of the Kimpton is just eh, compared to the front? Also, a lot of kimptons have resort style pools, I think it would have been kind of cool to have a little paradise pool oasis where the yoga platform is (sun may be blocked majority of time though). Nonetheless, awesome rainbow...that random storm today seemed worst than the hurricane rain we got, those winds were strong!

if the views are the standard, Mile High Stadium has to be up there with both skyline views and a clear view of the Rockies.

Not the best day for photos but a couple of showing Charlotte rising with 2 new office towers across the street from one another and more to come.  Transformation of Stonewall Street continues.   Foggy cloudy mornings always better with coffee and Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
