The IKEA in Charlotte is kind of on the other side of the city from the airport.

And it's not exactly right off 24...you have to go through other shopping centers to get there.

I've also been to the Minneapolis IKEA and it's nowhere near MSP.

Not sure where that "near an airport" thing came from!!

I would drive there from Richmond, VA. There is a Woodbridge, VA location 86 miles north but I never go because it's not worth the D.C. traffic. I would prefer to drive the 178 miles south.

I think that the CTC location is ideal. An even better location would be the South Hills Mall area because it is RIGHT beside the highway. But, CTC is close enough and with the mixed-use stuff planned and neighborhoods nearby, people could easily walk to that IKEA.

I don't think there's enough land at South Hills, even if they razed the entire existing mall area.

Good feedback, and they will carry their bed frames, mattress, kitchen cabinets, loveseats on their backs

Just kidding

I still am not seeing where they said they were coming. All I see is a random question posed to an IKEA representative if they ever considered coming to the Triangle and the reply was a polite "We are always looking at options". There is nothing here to even hang a dream on. How are people extrapolating so much info from so little?
