Here’s A Jewel:
Solar-powered mid-rise in SouthPark?
SouthPark could become home to the city's first fully eco-friendly mid-rise if one Charlotte man gets his way.David Thompson has filed a rezoning request to build SolarPark, an 80-foot residential building that would run entirely on solar power and electricity. The building would sit on one acre near Park and Sharon roads.Residential buildings in the SouthPark area generally must be capped at 40 feet without city permission. A community meeting is scheduled for September, with a public hearing in October.The pyramid-shaped SolarPark would use solar panels extensively to collect energy from the sun. That energy would be used along with electricity to run appliances and heat the building's air and water. --
