Crescent: Carson Southend (Enterprise site) S. Tryon x Carson MXD

[KJHburg]

I have known of this for 2 years prior to Covid  and kept it quiet with a few hints.  Last week I found a website from the developer with this information on it and these renderings.  More information should come out  this week.   From my undisclosed coastal NC location I present this and  from the now hidden webpage:

""Meet Charlotte’s newest 31-story, mixed-use community combining nearly 565,000 square feet of Class A office space, a 200-key hotel, 100 premier multifamily units, and 10,000 square feet of activated retail, anchored by an 8,000 square foot amenity terrace.""

Last photos are of the site I took a week or so ago.  

I hope Riverside's and this Crescent project are going up at the same time.   #CharlotteRising and #Southend especially #Rising tall.   Crescent does great work as we have seen with their Ally Bank Center, their various apartment complexes and even their renovation at One Independence Center.  

 

Oh the site is reappearing after it disappeared.

Touche, Crescent.  Renderings that don't even try to contemplate Riverside's plans materializing.

A mere extension of the Tryon Canyon. When it was said the gap closing between uptown and south end… they meant it.

maybe not in size or height but this is solid great project.  Over 400 feet I think.  Like that hotel and you have to think after 2 years of Covid and they are still planning a hotel they have an operator in mind.  (and remember they brought the JW Marriott to town) 

[JeanClt]

This POV is very funny and ironic. View blocked but by something rather interesting.

[KJHburg]

to me it looks like the Lendingtree HQ half of Vantage Southend will have an uptown view though partially blocked the newer tower there on S Tryon will be block but right at an exciting new corner of growth with Riverside's project this one and Vantage Southend.

Riverside and now this really makes me wish the original 20 story 1100 South Tryon project would have happened.  I thought that was a pretty good looking tower and the canyon effect outside of uptown would have been awesome.

So many facepalms, and not cause of the project

Any renders of Enterprise in the new building? I imagine it will be pretty upscale, perhaps even becoming a National location...

I started out joking about this but now I really want it to happen.

It is actually the one I go to if I ever need a rental, so I wouldn’t hate it.

You can certainly see elements of the Ally building here, especially with the exterior grid pattern.  I just hope and pray Crescent does a much better job with the parking deck at this development.   Good looking buildings and thanks for the scoop!

Edit: Actually, after looking over the renderings again, the deck appears to be wrapped...whew!

Did KJ just report this news before the Ledger does tomorrow? Or is the ledger story something different? As always excellent work KJ, you sure must’ve had a lot of Krispy Kreme to have enough weight to sit on this for that long

something a crap load cooler :-)

Looks like the parking deck on the back of this development will be blank walls. Am I seeing this correctly? If so, hopefully they will have an artist paint murals on it.

[JorgiPorgi]

This has been An awesome day for Southend. Is this even Southend, or South Uptown? What is uptown Charlotte anymore?

Oh wow, I assumed this was that.  It's like Christmas Eve again...

I've been trying to rebrand it "Downtown"

I think still like Southend, as it is distinctively Charlotte. I do wonder if there will be a rebranding if the neighborhood development becomes a dense as uptown.

I would keep the neighborhood scale portion South End. This section really will be its own thing.

Hmmm, interesting.  So everything from Belk to, say, Dimensional Funds would be this Downtown?  What would be the theoretical boundaries?

400 feet is no joke! I was hoping for 500 but this will impress too. The skyline is really extending. 
 

Next step is to fill the gap between this and 277.

I approve of this area around Morehead and Carson as Downtown. 

Rebranding this area perhaps allows us to shuck off the "LOSO" ridiculousness and just call it South End.

Also, I'd propose Downtown's southern boundary as East/West Station, and from there South End can begin.

Kind of sad to see that it won’t have any interesting night time lighting. Very excited to see it get built, it’ll work incredibly well with the Riverside buildings.

I think I prefer using bathe Gold District still, unless that isn't a thing any more.....

So what is ultimately going to happen to this plot of property? Will it stay as southend continues to be such a destination?
