Discovery place (more than one) is nice.

Just got back from here. The one downtown.

Not bad…

Quite a few exhibits…

And getting in and out if downtown was pretty simple…

Thanks.

See y’all at the Hornets game tomorrow…

Anybody here tried Harold’s yet? I went there a couple days ago and while I did enjoy the food(the tea tasted like liquid sugar) I just don’t understand what they’re trying to do. They got people in there smoking hookah next to people just trying to eat their food. It’s basically a club vibe with chicken restaurant food. I hope they make it man but they’re all over the place in there lol.

I have a young friend joining the Merchant Marine for domestic tug work and he wants to move down South. He will make about $45k starting out but be on a ship 6 months of the year so will save decent money if he is smart. Would Charlotte be a good place for him to live cost of living wise? He can live anywhere and fly in to his hitches.

I am guessing with the 30% rule he would qualify for a $1k 1BR apartment. Doesn't have to be in the downtown hip areas, suburbs (with Black folks) is fine. Thanks.

Another store is leaving Northlake. Fashion Clothing & Designer Jeans in Charlotte | Buckle 352

I try to stop by Northlake when I'm in the area because they have the most sneaker stores. DTLR, Kids Footlocker, Footlocker, Champs, Jimmy Jazz, Finishline, & a boutique if you tryin pay resell. The Dillards is decent, the Macy's is terrible, lots of open space especially in the Men's section. And the mall itself is kinda just empty around Macy's.

Concord Mills is alright. It has the Outlet stores and a couple sneaker spots. Footlocker chose to close all the Footactions.

Southpark is cool. Got some higher end stores, anchor stores seem to be doing alright. Only 2 sneaker stores though, Footlocker & The Athlete Foot. Also a new resell boutique.

I haven't been to Carolina Place since like 2020. But it was alright when I used to go.

I think he can swing it COL wise but he may be stretching it if he has any other debt. There will probably be some competition with spots in that price range that have decent reviews. Six months a year or only once? If it's yearly and he's a younger cat he could look into the college apartments that rent by the door to stretch his money a bit further.

Tried it, but I got my food to-go. Wasn’t as good as I remembered. Music seemed way too loud.

Y'all need to hit some of those Art after Darks at Gantt. I went to the most recent one then swung by the Pablo Party @Bryan Danielson posted. Both were nice IMO. Good vibes if you with a chick & some cute chicks if you single.
