But we moved out of Boston for a reason. That city has 300 years of infrastructure problems that lead to overcrowding, overpricing, and overcomplication. Maybe some of you out there could listen to us (instead of calling us "Yankee" and telling us to go home). We've seen a lot of good and a lot of bad in urban planning, and we are all lucky enough to be on the ground floor of a building city in Charlotte. We could do this right, if we have an open mind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19601020.post-65433492180434572422008-08-12T15:39:00.000-04:002008-08-12T15:39:00.000-04:00I don't think I'll move to Boston; too many Red Sa...I don't think I'll move to Boston; too many Red Sawx fans.

Heck...Yeah, Shaw's isn't exactly the hangout spot. Heck you can't even buy beer in the supermarkets up there. But the concept in principle is still noteworthy. As for I-277, a park and some low level stores and restaurants would be the best bet. The best part about Copley Square, etc is that you don't even know there is a freeway under or around you. What this could do for uptown walkability would be phenominal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
