Remember that Mercedes plant that NC wanted to land? Well, it turns out that the Mercedes plant will be built on a parcel that includes the historic Glenridge Hall mansion. The Atlanta developer (Ashton Woods) that owns the property will build the plant on a portion of the parcel and then plans to demolish Glenridge Hall to put in a "luxury" housing development

It's a real shame to lose this beautiful house.

How is it that the Teatards in Georgia's General Assembly are OK with incentivizing this growing, kind to the environment, well paying industry but our Teatards in Raleigh have run this industry out of the state on a rail. This really, really p*sses me off!!
