City Scoop: Charlotte's 2016 Construction Starts to Gain
Jennifer Weaver Business Development Manager PSI/Intertek
Charlotte continues to feel positive effects from light rail development, says Weaver, who currently serves as president of the Charlotte chapter of the Society for Marketing Professional Services. The planned expansion of the LYNX line “has created an enormous rush for developers to buy up real estate” along that route, she says. As a result, Weaver expects the city’s Noda area to experience “a lot of construction and development over the next few years due to the increased visibility that will come once that new extension is completed."
