But a lot of those suburbs even are starting to create dense mixed use nodes. Really the only time they have to travel downtown is if they work in an office or if they’re going for a night out.
We’ve beat it to death but until it doesn’t cost half the price to get double the living in the suburbs, you can’t just tell someone “live downtown”
Also I have more walkability in Wendell Falls than most ITB unless you’re right downtown. So I don’t think saying “just live downtown” is right or fair.
Our best option is dense nodes in the suburbs, downtown, the surrounding neighborhoods, etc.
It’s crazy how this hotel is listed on the Dreamville Fest recommendation list. I honestly think they need to replace it with the new AC Hotel since it isn’t on the list. I’m saying this because a few people pointed out how the holiday is somewhat rundown.
Late to the party here - just wanted to pile on with reminiscing. This was the first hotel I stayed at downtown back in 2019 before I relocated here. I was drawn to it because of its unique structure, and even though the interior was super outdated, it was a nice stay overall. Took these from the restaurant on the top floor…not a bad view. Downtown won’t be the same without it!
Hi Other Mike!
I love the views from up there, and no animosity to the building itself. As you said, it has become pretty outdated inside, and I can’t help but think this was intention on the owner’s part…just waiting for that moment when they get a big buyout.
