This is a business that is doing a lot for the community. Real Eyes is highly involved in the Charlotte Literary Festival, promoting literacy www.charlotteliteraryfestival.com . They have a great selection of new and used books. Nikki Giovanni was a guest author last year. They host many interesting and attention-worthy events. I haven't been here in awhile and it seems like it has grown since I last visited. Some places easily fade from memory once I leave- but I have regularly remembered this place as one to get back to.
