Abstract:
As a growing city, construction is a part of life in Charlotte. Architect David Furman has designed buildings and spaces in Charlotte since the 1990s when his firm, The Boulevard Company, became a development company. At first, he designed infill sites near Uptown, but since, he has designed the 1616 Center office building, housing communities for the homeless, and the Rail Trail in South End that follows the Light Rail tracks—all proposed with the community in mind.
