Panthers interim Steve Wilks 'pretty confident' team can win: Wednesday, Oct. 12

Panthers interim head coach Steve Wilks says the next 12 weeks are about doing everything he can to get the team back on track after a disappointing 1-4 start to the season.

During his first news conference as the team's head coach, Wilks said he's confident Carolina has the opportunity to turn things around starting this week against the Los Angeles Rams.

"One thing I do know, for sure, they're not canceling our season," Wilks said. "We've got to do a great job of coming together collectively and finding a way to turn this thing around quickly."

A sleepy section of Uptown is about to get a long overdue makeover.

Let's connect the dots.

Decades ago, Brooklyn was a thriving African-American neighborhood in Uptown's Second Ward. It was a town within a town with 1,500 homes, shops, restaurants and churches.

But in the '60s and '70s, it was all bulldozed in the name of development and replaced by government buildings and Marshall Park.

In recent years, a new plan slowly gained traction for a newly reimagined Brooklyn Village. Ditching the current buildings and park and replacing it with 1,200 apartments and condos of all price points.

The multi-year, multi-million dollar Brooklyn Village community is set to be smack in the heart of Uptown.
