The only motel in the state with a swimming pool inside a damn bubble

North Carolina once had... this! So what happened to this place? And did the bubble actually work?

While I was doing research on last week’s newsletter about the surprisingly old building that housed Charlotte’s classiest strip joint (until recently), I found the picture above. Well! Would you look at that! A pool inside a bubble! Apparently they’re not just for outdoor dining and NBA playoffs during a pandemic!
