NASCAR, the iconic racing organization, is building their corporate offices in Charlotte, North Carolina next door to the NASCAR Hall Of Fame. This is a coup for the city after heated competition between Charlotte, Atlanta, and Daytona Beach for the Hall of Fame.
Building the new corporate headquarters for NASCAR next door to the Hall of Fame does make a great deal of sense though, it brings the past and the future together for the fast growing racing circuit.
Upon completion in 2009, the NASCAR plaza will be a 19-story, 376,401 square-foot office building anchored by the auto racing organization. The building will be integrated with the NASCAR Hall of Fame. Pei, Cobb & Freed Partners, the New York-based architectural firm that designed the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, designed the NASCAR facility with a metal band that twists and wraps around its exterior, reflecting the track that is central to the sport.
Wells Fargo has a historical relationship with the sport of NASCAR, including providing commercial banking services to the auto racing organization. Wells Fargo Financial has sponsored the Petty Enterprises team for five years, and Kyle Petty will drive the No. 45 Wells Fargo Dodge in 12 races this season. via CNN Money.
