Charlotte, North Carolina has been all over the news on Direct TV lately for all the right reasons. They’re hosting the DNC next year and they’re at the center of the banking crisis but what else does the city have going for it? Parks, that’s what! Check out some of the amazing green revitalization projects going on around the city
The Greenway – It runs for 1.5 miles between the city’s biggest park and Midtown, an area just outside the Uptown buildings. It’s attracting bikers, runners and even some local festivals and we think it’s nice to see it continuing to be developed.
Romare Bearden Park – Groundbreaking just took place and the park’s set to be one of the biggest projects in the fourth ward of the city for years. It’s slated to have fields for games and a dog walk and be done sometime in 2013.
ReVenture Park – This is one of the first parks of its kind in the country and it features a trash facility that converts waste into energy. If you’ve ever wondered what the future of power is, look to Charlotte.
