rockhilljames 244 Report post Posted February 9, 2008 So the question earlier about the Englishman got me wondering....are there any stores or places in Charlotte that you're wondering what they're like, or even what they are? I'll start...on South Blvd....what the HECK is the Cobber???!! I've always been too scared to find out.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rockhilljames 244 Report post Posted February 11, 2008 I haven't seen that...(Colon Express) but that is scary! A private club! That makes a little more sense. I'm still curious as to what they do there, but now I'm guessing the answer is drink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miesian Corners 1386 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 OK, I've got one: Star Travel (beside Mac's on South Blvd). Is it REALLY a travel agency? I've never seen anyone going into or out of the place. I did peek in the window one night when going to Mac's for BBQ. Lots of mail in the entry way, but no sign of life. HMMMM....

Raintree21 2 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 Charlotte.com's yellow pages has it listed under the category of: "Packaging, Shipping & Labeling Services, Shipping Companies" The sign in spanish in this picture says something like "Send cargo/packages to Central and South America" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rockhilljames 244 Report post Posted February 15, 2008 Colon Express has got to be one of the best business names ever. Belle Acres is awesome! A friend of mine was a member there and used to take me there for lunch. It is AMAZING inside with memorabilia from some amazing people. Getting a membership there is close to impossible.
