Wonder if there are any plans to paint that water tower? I'm sure they will eventually.

Would love a tour of the boiler room. Pretty neat.

Camp Northend is becoming the transformative place I knew it would be when it first started.   Next year 2022 will see more new construction and the apartments all that site work is being done now.

Event venue coming to Camp North End.  From the Biz Journal today

""Best Impressions Caterers is expanding its footprint with a 23,000-square-foot venue at Camp North End.  The Charlotte catering firm has finalized a long-term lease for that 600-seat special-event space at 701 Keswick Ave. It will be called The Revelry North End.  The Revelry North End will highlight the building’s architecture. The design will incorporate steel, wood and brick with modern design elements. A 40-foot clerestory window will flood the space with natural light.  “We want to accentuate its industrial charm and develop something really special that you can’t find anywhere else in Charlotte,” King says.  A fall 2022 opening is targeted.""

More expansion announcements at CampNorthEnd. Owner's of Leah & Louise are opening 4 more new concepts. 

I walk around the perimeter of CNE almost daily, been a ton of fun lately watching all the rapid change. New pedestrian street lights and trees going in around the entire 76 acres. The building where the event hosting space is going is really coming along nicely, new windows, interior walls going up, parking deck. I am still trying to confirm but I believe Saru Ramen has closed which is a bummer, that had quickly become my favorite go to lunch spot.

Ill try and do a better job of getting some progress pictures as I stroll through daily.

Little unsure how the formatting will work once I hit post, but I will try and describe them in order.

1 - Looking down Woodward Ave towards Statesville. New street lamps and trees have gone in all along this stretch as well as the North Graham and Sylvania ave(no trees yet). Heist Barrel Arts on the right.

2. - View from North end of the parking lot, N Graham and Woodward ave. DEC2 filling in a nice gap.

3. - Looking down the tracks, new parking garage but they saved a piece of the original  building that they will work into the façade somehow. Can see some of the new window and door framing on the building closest and to the right.

4. - Straight on shot at some of the new window and door framing. You can also see some of the interior work as well

5. - Looking down Keswick ave at the area that will be the four new food concepts mentioned in the axios article.

6. - Opposite end of the same new food stall area. Really like how and where they decide to make large cut outs of the existing building to creat new spaces. This is directly beside Free Range Bar.

7. - Building behind new food stalls and before parking deck.  Looks like some new beams have gone in and there are some metal staircases you can see in the foreground. Cant wait to see how this turns out.

8.  One of the latest murals done during the Talking Walls art festival this past year. @artbyabel is the artist.

Saru Ramen did close. I went over last week and ran into a worker who was cleaning out the place. There's not really anyone there on weeknights to eat outside in the winter so I'm not surprised someone closed

Saru closed due to family reasons from what I understand, not because of any lack of business. Things have slowed down now that we are in the middle of winter and the Van Gogh exhibit closed but I think there is still enough traffic to justify being open most weeknights if you have a good product.

Just saw this post by Ascent Real Estate, I know that residential is coming but it mentions 300 multifamily units in design phase. Anyone know where to dig up some details on this!?

Knew we had something floating around in the thread.  From Oct 2020 so it could have changed since then but here's what was shared previously.

Yea I looked back at and remembered this layout. Just wondering if maybe there were some new details at all. 

[Rickybobby]

16th street is finally open!!!

[Rickybobby]

On my most recent lap around the perimeter of CNE I did a count of how many trees they have planted. They have done 3 of the 4 sides surrounding the development(Woodward, n. Graham and Sylvania) with the last stretch(Statesville) left being one of the longest and already counted 120. 

They were also replanting all the giant movable wooden planters that have a tree as the center piece. I wonder what the total will be once the whole 76 acres is developed.

[TheRealClayton]

There are actually two Multifamily buildings in development. I designed that map above, there's an updated one, I'll see if I can get approval to post it.

[KCLT]

Grabbed this photo from the backside of Free Range Brewing's bar last week. The metal bars really class up the garage facade.

New residential development in the works for the Camp Northend area.

Anyone have any info on this project? An 8k grocery located on 2200 Statesville Avenue. This would place it next door to Camp North End.

Rendering of new residential development with an affordable component from Joe Bruno on Twitter

""A look at the townhome project Charlotte City Council will vote on tonight. They will be built across from Camp North End. About 92 units (10% affordable). There's a retail component as well and the developer (Drakeford) says it will not be low end retail (i.e. dollar stores etc)""  Joe Bruno reports

I mean, that's probably a pretty good opportunity for a dollar store. Lots of daily household needs within walking distance for a lot of people. 

[RANYC]

Is that a strip mall in the development?

Yes, but there is already a Family Dollar and small supermarket across from Camp North End along Graham.

[InTheYear2000]

Dollar General (among others) is a souped-up convenience store masquerading as a grocery story. They target low income neighborhoods offering nutritionally incomplete (yet high margin) foods that further exacerbate the health problems in low income communities. As much as gentrification can be a burden to the existing residents, I hope in this situation with those added town homes it might also benefit them by way of a real grocery store option.
