I know there are a few other other development nerds on the forum, so I thought it might be interesting to have a thread like this on the board. A lot of people probably don’t follow development projects in the city closely, but there are a lot of good things happening in the city that will continue to make Charlotte an even more attractive place to live and do business (which is ultimately good for our school and students). Here is a concise list of projects underway planned to be underway within the next year (roughly). A few are speculative, but most of them are happening for sure:
Residential:
-Mint Museum Apartments- 42 stories
-The Bearden- 32 Stories
-Skyhouse 1&2- 24 stories x2
Office:
-300 South Tryon- 25 stories (this is the lot beside Belfast Mill)
-Tryon Place- 27+ stories (this is where the Goodyear service center on S. Tryon sits today)
-Portman- 19 stories (this goes over the Westin parking deck)
Hotel:
-Embassy Suites- 250 rooms (across from Nascar HoF)
- Tryon Place - 300 rooms (+100 apartments) - 25 floors [font=Verdana](this is where the Goodyear service center on S. Tryon sits today)[/font]
