“CHARLOTTE”

Jackson adds a splash of youth and vibrancy near the LYNX station in NoDa. You may recognize his work from a piece that honors the Mecklenburg Investment Company building and the Brooklyn neighborhood at South Brevard and East Third streets.

Nine muralists tackle the nine letters in “Charlotte.” The artists, in sequential order, are DeNeer Davis, Garrison Gist, Mike Wirth, Dammit Wesley, Bree Stallings, CHDWCK!, Owl, King Carla, and Frankie Zombie.
