North Charlotte/NoDa
Simply speaking, "NoDa" is the central village located within the neighborhood of North Charlotte. The City of Charlotte recognizes North Charlotte politically as a neighborhood, and characterizes the demographics of the neighborhood as a wholehttp://ww.charmeck.org/QOL/PDF/2008QualityofLife_FullReport.pdf. However, the "district" of NoDa possesses very different demographics than the political whole of North Charlotte. Due to this dichotomy, NoDa's Neighborhood Association has chosen to redefine and represent the boundaries of NoDa, rather than the political boundaries of North Charlotte. The neighborhood association is either referred to as "HNCNA (Historic North Charlotte Neighborhood Association)" or "NoDa Neighborhood Association," as the two names are used interchangeably to reflect the interests of two separate districts that share part of the same geography.
Often, NoDa will be used when referring to issues of the arts and entertainment community; and North Charlotte will be used when referencing historic buildings or organizations. Several individual buildings in NoDa are on the National Historic Places register, but are recognized by the location of (Historic) North Charlotte. *NoDa Neighborhood Association

Famous quotes containing the words north and/or charlotte:
“The North is full of tangled things and texts and aching eyes
And dead is all the innocence of anger and surprise,
And Christian killeth Christian in a narrow dusty room,
And Christian dreadeth Christ that hath a newer face of doom,
And Christian hateth Mary that God kissed in Galilee,”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
“Last night, party at Lansdowne-House. Tonight, party at Lady Charlotte Greville’s—deplorable waste of time, and something of temper. Nothing imparted—nothing acquired—talking without ideas—if any thing like thought in my mind, it was not on the subjects on which we were gabbling. Heigho!—and in this way half London pass what is called life.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
