SouthPark neighborhood Projects

^^ So there's this.....

 

Sharon United Methodist (the huge tall slopey church across Sharon Rd from Cowfish/Residences at SouthPark) has 7 acres that they want to redevelop.

 

 

The Property

Currently, the church sits on seven acres. The original structure is going to be leveled and redeveloped, and we are currently in the design phase looking for your input. We want to know what you want in your new community church and center. Are you hoping for a coffee shop, or perhaps a family-friendly restaurant?

We're breaking the conventional church mold and pulling out all the stops, building a center that is dedicated not only to our members, but to improving the entire community. To make our community center a reflection of the community, we need you and your family to get involved!

 

Very happy they're keeping it modern (http://www.dreambigsouthpark.com/)    Psyched that the ski slope will stay; I was horrified at the possibility of yet another dome/arch/pediment/red brick/efis cluster that currently exists on every lot in the neighborhood.

^ I'm thinking that David B. Thompson ( parcel owner on Sharon Rd..) might have some objections to this.  As he did on this evening several years ago...

I am very interested in this Colony redevelopment project. I hope it gets off the ground

If I may take a moment to let my inner liberal out, 55 workforce units out of 1100 is ludicrous, especially when I'M probably below the area's median income.

I think that it's ludicrous to have workforce housing to begin with.

I'm pretty sure AMI is based on the city as a whole, not the area of south park specifically.

I'm hearing the grocery will be Publix. Which brings me to my next point.

SouthPark is going to have the following grocery stores:

* Flagship Harris Teeter

* Publix

* A Southern Season

* Earthfare

* Whole Foods

* Reid's

Not to mention the other grocery stores within a 2 mile radius.

So why are people freaking out about uptown having three?

[InSouthPark]

I would not be surprised if that EarthFare location bites the dust in the next few years. Honestly I don't see how it stays open now since Whole Foods opened up. Anytime I go in to that EF, it has less people in it than the Fresh Market on Providence/Fairview (and 3x the size).  Whole foods is always busy. EF might be able to survive if they can make it to the end of the building cycle as there is going to be a LOT more residents in SP over the next 5 years. 

 

I would be interested to see if Publix make their store sort of a "flagship for NC" store. It will take a lot I believe to sway people away from the Taj Mah Teeter. Its big, its nice, lots of parking, and its easy to get in and out of. 

[Prodev]

Also heard Publix will be included in the redevelopment plans. In all likelihood it will be a podium store similar to south end. 

[InSouthPark]

It looked the like the Allure apartments (JLB) on Carnegie had a ribbon cutting yesterday. 350 units. Lots of balloons and whatnot at the entrance. 

 

The Crescent apartments are still a pretty long way off from being done but building 1 only has one more floor of interiors to finish up. 321 units in total.

 

Capital towers building 1 is at floor 8ish (out of 10). The gigantic parking deck is also 3/4+ done. 

 

The encore apartments at Morrison and Barclay probably has another 2-3 floors to go. 280 units. 

 

This part of Southpark is a gigantic construction zone right now!

Website is up and running for the Colony Redevelopment.

Speaking of that location, when is Camden Pinehurst going to demo those nasty apartments that is adjacent to this property?  That will quite the busy corner if the Camden project gets built, this gets built and if Strawberry Hill ever finishes their retail expansion.

[RiverwoodCLT]

Has anyone heard about the progress on Spectrum plans for office tower in Dillard's parking lot.

Still in rezoning until March 16th. Staff recommends approval.

I understand that Camden no longer owns this property.  Northwood Ravin owns it and is in the due diligence stage for a phased redevelopment.

[CLTProductions]

The hotel project (Hilton Garden/Homewood suites) seems to be full steam ahead. Plans were submitted last week and a project inspection was scheduled today. The project is going right off Sharon Road (4738 Sharon Road) by Fairview. This site has apartments (townhomes???) on it now, I am assuming those are being demoed??

Every time I see a new project moving forward in Southpark I cringe further at the thought of driving through there. It's a shame light rail isn't viable (or in the works).

100% this. SouthPark and Ballantyne should have been the #1 priorities for mass transit.

They wish to be particular about who can travel there.

[HopHead]

That and they don't want the government dictating how they get there either. How awful. 

[js4life]

The most realistic option for SouthPark would be to add a true shuttle service from the blue line. Something that connects from the scaleybark station could work. It would need to run every 10 minutes or so

[DMann]

Rtes 57, 30, and 60 all connect the mall with LYNX.
