One of Studiobanks’ first pro-bono projects was to help the Carolina Theatre Preservation Society with the theatre’s 75th anniversary. It was an event to help raise funds for the restoration of Charlotte’s oldest theatre, which was closed after a fire 20 years ago.

To my surprise, we saw a new banner hanging on the long empty corner of 6th and Tryon yesterday while we were out to lunch. It appears that a new residential condominium is going to be constructed on the lot, and the plans call for a complete restoration of the Carolina Theatre!

The project will also include Charlotte’s first elevator system parking garage. Read about the project at The Encore website.

Those condos are fugly. What is wrong with architecture in Charlotte? Is it just me? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here.
