No mountain top development, of any kind in any place in South Carolina. If you want to know what it will actually wind up looking like, drive up to Sugar mountain, NC at take a gander at that gawdawful eyesore called Sugar Top Resort. A freaking monstrosity of an eyesore that can be viewed from miles around. The developers of that ’70s era Soviet architecture hideous blot on the landscape promised it would “blend in with harmony”. It turned out to be such a blight on the landscape that it resulted in North Carolina enacting the North Carolina Mountain Ridge Protection Act (MRPA). Let’s do this right and outlaw this type of development BEFORE we have a problem. 40 years after the completion of Sugar Top, the state of NC still regrets the decision to allow the malevolent shadow of that ghastly building to blot the mountains.
