CITY VIEW CENTER


City View Center

History

“The first of the learning centers, [the West Area LearningCenter,] established in the spring 1979, was somewhat revolu-tionary. It occupied space in Freedom Mall Shopping Center onCharlotte’s west side. Called the “College Mart,” the center wasequipped with the latest computers, office machines, and audio-visual aids and offered television courses, practical courses, andmini-courses on a wide range of subjects … CPCC saw the ven-ture as a way to make education more accessible to the people,alleviate parking at the downtown site, and enable students tosave money on gas. To promote the concept, it published a brightorange brochure with a shopping cart on the front panel and thesewords: “For the Best Value in Education Shop CPCC CollegeMart!” Mayor Ken Harris was the first student to register.”(Timblin, C., CPCC: The First Thirty Years, p. 107)

In 1990, the West Area Learning Center was relocated to theK-Mart Plaza on Freedom Drive where it remained until 1996when it moved to Alleghany Street at Ashley Road and wasrenamed the City View Center.

Over the years, the City View Center has evolved into a cen-ter for life-long learning which provides accessible, high-qualityeducational opportunities in a caring and supportive atmosphere.
