Was looking at google maps aerial view of scaleybark yesterday after driving through. I think there is so much potential for this area as southend tries to stretch lower and lower. For those that have been in Charlotte for a while, how long does it usually take for an area like this to go from industrial to residential/developed? Is this massive project the catalyst for growth here?

The Charlotte model is 20 years of abandonment followed by three years of explosive building.

Scaleybark has been  completely untouched (until the townhouses) since 2006

I think when these new LoSo office buildings take off you will see more apartments and growth moving further down the LYNX line.  It has always been somewhat incremental.  First areas in SouthEnd to be redeveloped were closest to Dilworth and South Blvd now the area is stretched much further towards S Tryon.  Same thing is happening in BLE towards NoDa.  Here you have growth right along the LYNX line north from uptown and south from NoDa 36th St station.    Many developers don't have the appetite to be pioneers but those who do make big money.

Is there any more info about this project out there?  I’ve seen lots about their project on Tremont, but this is news to me.

None. I emailed the developer for a story

I saw that Greensboro is getting a Carvana tower along I-40 and the ones I saw in Texas in San Antonio and Houston and all over Florida all along interstates.   Why oh why is ours on South Blvd across from a LYNX station?  Really does anyone know.    Was there no land available along any interstate in Charlotte like I-486, I-85, I-77 or Independence or I-277 either???

Much to my surprise I spotted this on a bulletin board at UNCC today:

 

The anti-gentrification movement in Charlotte may be getting legs:

Pulte's $400K townhomes at the LoSo Scaleybark station.  From the QT parking lot.   then to the left is the stupidest location for a Carvana in the country.

Yes im sure masked communists are definitely what will make more people sympathize with their movement.  

[Niner National]

Gentrification will not stop until there is an economic downturn. I'm sorry poor people, but money wins. Always.

LoSo Station at Scaleybark Station.

visibility from I-77 and Uptown?  I don't see that no pun intended.

^^That didn't do a very good job of showing off the project.

Every time I hear LoSo I want to bang my head on  a brick wall.

My original name for the area was LoSE but it never took it off.  Lower South End 

[Windsurfer]

Seems like a great station to have a spur running down Scaleybark itself to Woodlawn then Park Road Shopping.  Not that far either.

Wonder if Woodlawn's Station will be next. Such an ugly area now.

It's never a good moniker if you have to explain what it means via another huge sign right next it. 0:23 in the video. Lol

Couple photos of the Scaleybark Station area with the Pulte townhomes and the glass Carvana tower (boo!)  Photos 1,2 and 3. 

Rest  of the photos:   Then a couple photos from Charlotte's newest hip neighborhood.  May I present    SoLoSoNoPi    as I have proclaimed these new townhomes at Arrowood station to be in this community.  South of LoSo and NOrth of Pineville  the new hip neighborhood   SoLoSoNoPi      These  new townhomes with garage start in the upper 260s.    And they are 50% sold out as now out of around 200.

I drove by the Beacon Development at Scalybark Station last night and saw this:

 

Anybody know anything more about it?

Beacon quietly bought the warehouses on Dewitt between Tryclan and Clanton for adaptive Reuse. Guess they've branded it.

That rendering somewhat reminds me of this area of bars in Scottsdale
