‘Nowhere near a done deal.’ Will lingering distrust scuttle revived CATS Red Line plans?

COULD CAMP NORTH END BE ADDED TO THE RED LINE?

Alex Wohlbruck, who described himself as a big advocate “for transit and cycling projects,” said he’d like to see a station added at Camp North End. The 76-acre site is home to food stalls and shops. It frequently hosts events, too.

 

“That would be a huge miss if they didn’t include that,” he said.

 

The idea of a Red Line station in the vicinity of the entertainment venue emerged during discussions in the 2010s about North End development, developer Damon Hemmerdinger told the Observer.

 

“My understanding was that there was talk at that time about the fact that if the city and both the public sector and the civic sector wanted economic development to occur in Charlotte’s north end, if the Red Line was to happen, that adding a stop would make sense,” he said.
