Businesses and residents downtown have complained about the noise from outdoor music, said Ed Wolverton , president and CEO of Downtown Greensboro Inc.
More people live downtown now than when M’Coul’s started its celebration. There are about 1,200 residential units downtown, compared with about 600 seven years ago, Wolverton said.
“It’s unfortunate, but when you have mixed-use, residential/commercial, you have to find a balance,” said Michael Speedling , assistant city manager for public safety and human resources.
Yeah, well evidently Charlotte didn’t think about it, either. That’s is mixed-use living for you.
