Well looks like Fayetteville will get somewhat of a tower in the near future near the future downtown ballpark. Its been reported that a 9-story apartment building will be built on top of a parking deck at the stadium which would put it at about 12 to 14 stories. That is realistic for Fayetteville. Towers on top of parking decks appears to be a growing trend in the state. Bpains29 you weren't far off. But with Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham and now the Triad hogging all of the growth, its difficult to see any kind of major economic/development boom in Fayetteville particularly since it lacks the infrastructure the 3 big metros have. It would help a little if Fayetteville had an international airport but its like the chicken and the egg. Fayetteville doesn't have enough business in the area for an international airport. Fayetteville has over 200,000 people thanks to Fort Bragg. But its downtown looks like cities such as Burlington, Goldsboro or Greenville, NC.

you're wrong about greenville, it has a way nicer, bigger,modern and aesthetically pleasing downtown than fayetteville, goldsboro and burlington.
I think you should keep up with the greeneville development thread.
But congratulations to fayetteville, this new development is going to change the city big time, cystel building is 12 stories, market house is 6 stories, self help center building is 11 stories tall, while it's not a 20 or 20+ skyscraper, a 14 story building will fit right in and create a decent skyline for fayetteville.
Maybe later own the growth effect could possibly trigger a 20+ story mixed use development...and fayetteville will get it's first true skyscraper.
I pull all nighters track side photographing and/or videoing trains in Fayetteville with
my camera gear out in the open. Sometimes left unattended while I might catch a
quick nap and have never once had the first problem there..
