Posted February 6, 2015 Looks like Crescent is ready to rock and roll on their other site on Stonewall as this was filed today: Crescent Uptown • Detailed Scope of Work: Mixed-use development with ground floor retail, structured parking, mid-rise apartments, and high-rise apartments. Approximately 440 units and 47,000 sf of retail. RDJ was pretty darn close! Love all that retail. And agree with what atlvr said below, wish there was hotel but you almost gotta figure there will be a phase 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 6, 2015 ^ I'd be lying if I didn't saw I was disappointed with the lack of hotel in the plans. Maybe there is a phase 2 component. It's such a big site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And agree with what atlvr said below, wish there was hotel but you almost gotta figure there will be a phase 2. It will be interesting to see the renderings if they say "mid and high rise" apartments for 440 units. I'm guessing a high rise tower with say ~300 units and then 140ish on top of the retail in a midrise? Perhaps wrapping the structured parking deck? Agreed with the sentiment that no hotel component is disappointing... However, perhaps that's phase 2 or Crescent may have other grand plans in uptown.

Posted February 9, 2015 47k sq ft of retail sure sounds like there will be a grocer there. Unless anyone knows otherwise, I still suspect this is Whole Foods. 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't RDF say a german grocer wanted the space? Since I don't know anything about German grocers other than Aldi, I hope it is a Whole Foods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The best part of that article was where it said Crescent confirmed the plan and said expect to see more information soon It would be neat if Crescent moved forward with both projects at the same time.

Posted February 9, 2015 Pretty cool that Ely gave UP a shoutout. I almost wanted to say he should have linked to the board in the shoutout, but then we might end up with some of the Charlotte Observer commenters. :shudders: 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 9, 2015 Agreed on both accounts haha we do not need them here. I can't imagine how terrible the lives of a few of those posters must be. Everything they post is negative, even when there is good news. There could be a news article about Charlotte being named the greatest city in the world, leading to 50 Fortune 500 HQ relocations leading to the highest average salaries in the world and 0% unemployment in Charlotte and they'd find something to complain about. 2 people like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's insanely awesome. I think between the traffic coming in from South End, Met and Uptown, this will do unfathomably well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The connectivity between Southend and Midtown to Uptown just increased significantly. I also think this will help to push development farther down Stonewall on the other empty plots owned by the city. Woo hoo!

Posted February 10, 2015 Wow... Game changer! I agree with ah59396, with the increased connectivity now it will push development further down Stonewall...I wouldn't be surprised to see those other empty plots scooped up rather quickly now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
