Thanks to John Hammer for sending in these pics of the WWI monument at the West Village four corners, which had been feeling a little neglected lately, what with all the East Charlotte Tractor Parade and Carrie's decorations over on the other side of town. Alexandra and Theo created this beautiful seasonal centerpiece on a grand scale that should see us through Thanksgiving. Thanks!
But will it solve the problem? The center of the West Village sports hefty granite rounded corners and (we hope) replanted begonias. Will the trucks make the turn without crushing the corners and axing their axles? We'll see. But for now, it looks promising.
The Old Brick has come back to life! Thanks to Charlotte News Editor Melissa Eyre for these pics of the newly-renovated and newly-reopened store. Have you been in yet? It looks very different, yet familiar.
