Business North Carolina • March, 2008 •

Straddling waterfalls with its wings unfurled, the home of Lowe's Cos. was no do-it-yourself project. Finished in 2003, the five-level, 400,000-square-foot building sits on 157 acres in Mooresville. About 2,000 work here. Before moving, the nation's No. 2 home-improvement retailer had its headquarters in a renovated one-story shopping mall in North Wilkesboro, the town where it was founded in 1946.
