  • Local Pulse: Tragedy in South Charlotte, Uptown Violence, and Economic Optimism for Charlotte

    Local Pulse: Tragedy in South Charlotte, Uptown Violence, and Economic Optimism for Charlotte
    2025/07/13
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Sunday, July 13th, 2025.

    We start our day with breaking news and a heavy heart. A man has died following a two-alarm fire at an apartment complex on Winter Oaks Lane in south Charlotte. The fire started early Thursday morning and not only claimed a life but displaced all residents of the building. Charlotte Fire officials stress the importance of checking smoke detectors and having an evacuation plan. Emergency workers and local organizations are working to support those affected.

    In the early hours today, police responded to reports of gunfire on North College Street in Uptown. Officers arrived at around 2 a.m. and have since launched a homicide investigation. Details are still unfolding, and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police are urging anyone with information to come forward. This follows another incident this weekend, where one person was shot in Uptown Charlotte, highlighting concerns about overnight safety in the city’s busiest neighborhoods.

    On the jobs front, there is encouraging news. Governor Josh Stein announced that AssetMark and Citigroup will bring over 750 new jobs to Charlotte, thanks to significant investments in Mecklenburg County. This is expected to boost opportunities in finance and tech, two areas where Charlotte continues to grow.

    Real estate news remains positive as well, with steady demand keeping prices strong, especially in neighborhoods like NoDa and South End. Local agents report that average home prices are up again this month, as young families and professionals look to settle close to Uptown.

    Turning to our weather, we are in for a classic Charlotte summer day. Expect plenty of sunshine with highs near 92 degrees. Afternoon thunderstorms may pop up, so keep an umbrella handy if you have outdoor plans. The weather could impact community events like the Festival in Freedom Park and the weekly farmer’s market on Kings Drive.

    If you love soccer, Charlotte FC fans have plenty to celebrate. After a weather delay, Charlotte FC shut out New York City FC last night at Bank of America Stadium. The win comes as the team continues its push for playoff contention, drawing big crowds and city pride.

    In cultural news, the Mint Museum is opening its new interactive art installation today, inviting families for hands-on activities through next weekend. Over in Plaza Midwood, a new bakery called Sweet Roots is opening its doors tomorrow, promising organic treats and a cozy spot for locals.

    On a more serious note, environmental advocates have filed a lawsuit to stop industrial chemical discharges that could threaten the drinking water for nearly 900,000 North Carolinians, including Charlotte residents. State and federal officials are debating new limits on chemicals linked to cancer risk.

    Congratulations to the Myers Park High School robotics team, which just returned with top honors from a national competition, making our city proud and showing the power of youth innovation in STEM.

    We also close with a feel-good story. Volunteers from across Charlotte came together yesterday to revitalize the gardens at Bryant Park, planting flowers and building benches, all to create a peaceful spot for neighbors to enjoy this summer.

  • "Cloudy Mornings, Exciting Football, and Community Happenings - Your Saturday Update from Charlotte Local Pulse"

    "Cloudy Mornings, Exciting Football, and Community Happenings - Your Saturday Update from Charlotte Local Pulse"
    2025/07/12
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Saturday, July 12. Let’s start with the weather, since it’s going to shape our day. We’re waking up to a cloudy, muggy morning with temperatures in the mid-seventies around Uptown. By midday, the sun breaks through, pushing highs to the upper eighties. We do have a chance for some afternoon showers, so let’s keep those umbrellas handy if we’re heading to Independence Park or out to run errands. The forecast hints at scattered storms through early evening, tapering off as we get into nighttime.

    The city is buzzing today with anticipation for Charlotte FC’s big match against New York City FC. Kickoff is 7:30 tonight at Bank of America Stadium. Charlotte FC has a strong record at home against NYCFC, so spirits are high for another exciting night under the stadium lights. For those not attending in person, the game is on MLS Season Pass and local radio as usual.

    On the business front, Governor Josh Stein just announced that two major companies are expanding here in Charlotte. AssetMark and Citigroup are set to bring more than 750 new jobs to Mecklenburg County over the coming year. This follows a recent uptick in job postings across the region, especially in finance and tech. Real estate continues to run hot, with median home prices hovering around 430 thousand dollars according to the latest numbers. We’re seeing new listings pop up in Plaza Midwood and South End, while supply is tight in Ballantyne and Myers Park.

    City Hall is making headlines with new transit developments. CATS announced that starting today, the Blue Line will undergo maintenance, so expect some service changes and possible delays, especially if our commute takes us through South Boulevard or UNC Charlotte. Meanwhile, starting Monday, lane closures hit I-85 for a new bridge project connecting University City with University Research Park. Officials warn of potential delays, so it’s a good weekend to plan alternate routes.

    In community news, a quick shout out to the East Mecklenburg High robotics team, who just returned from nationals with a top ten finish—a proud moment for our Charlotte schools.

    Turning to crime and safety, police responded to a stabbing last night near North Tryon, resulting in serious injuries. The investigation is ongoing, and officers are asking anyone with information to contact CMPD. Separately, there was a targeted shooting outside Carolina Place Mall in Pineville last evening, leaving one person injured. Police believe this was an arranged meetup that turned violent and want residents to know they believe there is no ongoing threat to the public. On Thursday, a vehicle crash involving a CMPD cruiser on South Tryon left two with minor injuries but thankfully no life-threatening harm.

    Looking ahead, the Levine Avenue of the Arts block party kicks off this afternoon, bringing live music, food trucks, and family fun through the evening. If music is your thing, The Evening Muse in NoDa is hosting a local band showcase tonight, and there’s a new art exhibit opening at the Mint Museum featuring Carolina creators.

    And here’s a feel-good story for your Saturday. Volunteers from Habitat for Humanity gathered on Beatties Ford Road yesterday to help a local grandmother finish the ramp for her new home, just in time for her birthday celebration. She told us it’s the best present she could imagine, and we couldn’t agree more.

    That’s all for today. Thanks for tuning in and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss what’s happening in Charlotte. This has been Charlotte Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

  • Charlotte Local Pulse: NAACP Convention, New Jobs, Events, Sports, and Community Updates

    Charlotte Local Pulse: NAACP Convention, New Jobs, Events, Sports, and Community Updates
    2025/07/11
    Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Friday, July 11th. As we start the day, we’re looking at clear skies with some lingering humidity in the air. The forecast calls for sunshine through the afternoon with highs in the mid-80s, making it a perfect day for all the events happening around town. So if you’ve got plans to be outside—at a festival, the park, or just strolling through uptown—be sure to stay hydrated.

    Let’s jump into what’s new across our city. The biggest buzz right now is the NAACP National Convention, which kicked off yesterday and runs through the 16th at the Charlotte Convention Center. This year’s event is attracting thousands from across the country. Expect extra traffic around uptown as our city becomes a hub for empowering speakers, competitions, and celebrations of progress. The convention’s presence is also giving a boost to local hotels, restaurants, and small businesses, a welcome lift in our summer economy.

    Speaking of local business, Governor Josh Stein just announced that financial services firm AssetMark is bringing over 250 new jobs to Charlotte with its new headquarters, while AVL Manufacturing is opening a production facility that will add more than 325 jobs. The manufacturing and finance sectors are seeing steady growth, and entry-level positions as well as skilled roles in IT, healthcare, and environmental services are all in high demand this week. For job seekers, hiring at places like InVue and UNC Charlotte continues strong, with dozens of openings listed online right now.

    Turning to real estate, we continue to see strong demand in neighborhoods like Plaza Midwood and South End, with homes selling quickly and prices holding steady despite a slight uptick in inventory. This is creating opportunities for both buyers and sellers, especially those looking to upsize or invest.

    Let’s talk community and culture. This weekend is packed with options. Charlotte Black Pride celebrates its 20th anniversary with events all weekend long, embracing diversity and authenticity. Jessie Reyez brings her Paid in Memories tour to The Fillmore tonight, and Music on the Green at Promenade on Providence features live performances Friday and Saturday evening. If you have kids, the Billy Graham Library is offering Kidzfest with inflatables, face painting, and games all day Saturday, and Bechtler Museum of Modern Art is hosting a free family day, including art-making and a dance party.

    Sports fans, we’ve got a lot to cheer for. Charlotte FC faces off against New York City FC at Bank of America Stadium Saturday night, and the USA Eagles rugby team takes on Spain at American Legion Memorial Stadium. And looking ahead, Bank of America Stadium will also host the ACC Football Kickoff later this month and the conference championship game in December.

    In local schools, congrats to the West Charlotte High debate team for placing in the top three at the state finals this week, a big win that’s bringing pride to the district.

    In city government, the Charlotte Fire Department and MEDIC are finalizing a new operational agreement to improve emergency response times, a move that should benefit all of us when minutes matter most.

    On the safety front, Matthews police made headlines yesterday with the arrest of a Union County man facing multiple charges related to kidnapping incidents. Police urge the community to remain vigilant and report anything suspicious, as always.

    For a feel-good finish, today is Free Slurpee Day at participating 7-Eleven stores, so swing by for a treat and a smile.
