Charlotte is a booming metropolis. The skyline is littered with skyscrapers, most famously the Hearst Tower, which houses Hearst Publishing, and Bank of America Plaza - once the tallest skyscraper in the state. Charlotte has numerous outdoor pursuits available. At Latta Plantation Park, visitors can hike or horseback ride over seven miles of trails. This 2,500 acre park provides an exceptional look at area waterfowl.
