Who’s up for traveling the world on a passport of over 500 different bottled beers from 40 different countries, and dozens of rotating taps?

Midtown nightlife has a new addition coming that will have the entire Triangle talking.  World of Beer (WOB) is taking its first leap out of Florida, and will be opening this summer in the Fountain Park at Captrust Tower, across from Zoes Kitchen.  Watch for high definition sports action and live music on the weekends showcasing local talent, along with state and national recording artists.

For those of us who live at Park and Market Apartments, World of Beer is our next door neighbor.  As for me, I’m thinking about installing a zip line right into WOB… Splash!

Clearly the 24/7 urban-style retail and office environment has been embraced by the Triangle for its rich amenities and quality of life that appeals to all ages.  As more stores, restaurants, residents, and office workers become part of the integrated development, improved ease of access from side streets and highways is expanding the radius for those who now think of this strategic beltline location as “My North Hills.”   “My North Hills” is different for each person, yet similar in the simple concept that most of our everyday needs and wants can be found within an easy walk, in a setting that draws us in with its welcoming feel and attractive appearance.  While North Hills has already become an economic engine for North Carolina today, the outlook for the future couldn’t be stronger.

It’s almost that time of year again and you better believe we have a great family Christmas planned for you! Saturday, November 20th begins the North Hills Christmas season with festivities from 3-8pm. Also, we just got off the phone with Santa and he will be there to light the tree at 6pm!

Festivities include: Music performances by the Sandbox Band, the Oakwood Waits & Pam Saulsby, Trolley Rides, a Trackless Train, Frosty, Rudolph, Santa and Mrs Claus, Merry Elves, Horse & Carriage rides, and SNOW!
