FAQ:
Q: When will the rooftop be fully available? A: We’re working on it now – goal is within 6-12 months. Your membership helps make it happen faster.
Q: What if the rooftop never opens? A: You’re still getting amazing value with Event Center access. But we’re confident – and if we can’t secure it, we’ll pivot to other premium perks for Rooftop Founders.
Q: Can I switch tiers? A: Yes! Upgrade anytime. If you downgrade from Rooftop Founder to Society, you lose the locked-in founding rate.
Q: Is this risky? A: You’re month-to-month – no long-term commitment required. You’re betting on community and exclusive access in Uptown Charlotte.
