Trader Joe's and the QC

I think it's interesting the way ring roads — in this case, I-277 — serve as a boundary for major urban development. Charlotte has since spilled over past 277 but you can see how it also helped increase the density of Uptown along the way. 

In the foreground is Midtown, anchored by the Trader Joe's.
