SouthEnd Projects

[Raintree21]

Kinda like the cargo container condos they were (or are) supposed to build in NoDa.

"dystopian" is a cool word. I don't get to use it that often in sentences.

I do think it could apply here, especially if the place is furnished starkly. You'd have to go cool and modern with this lack of space.

It seems that Hanover is planning another Southend apartment project just a block and a half away from Ashton South End.

This would be in the northeast corner of Tremont and S. Tryon. There are four industrial buildings of various sizes on the parcel now.

Hopefully whatever they plan will look different from Ashton.

Ashton SouthEnd - Update 08-13-2007

They have assembled 4 drilling rigs and are in the process of putting together another one. Hanover has some serious muscle moving on this project.

I was curious about the "ChelseaSouthend" sign along West right after crossing the tracks so I went to their website. Bare Bones right now but it's supposedly going to be a business/residential condo which is great I just loathe the name. We don't have to rip off New York or other big cities. They could have picked something more local.

I hate it too. NYC actually borrowed Chelsea from the UK. Chelsea is in London and is Anglo-Saxon for 'gravel bank'. The name really doesn't make much sense in Southend. Chelsea in the UK sits on the river Thames; therefore name appropriate. I know, I know.......too much history and who really cares...

I'm glad to see that retail will be built. That's what's missing in southend. What is the website? Who's doing the leasing?

I read in the latest CBJ about the luxury apt building going up where Overstock Market currently stands at Tryon&Morehead. According to the developers they are going to include a "sleek" cybercafe on the ground floor. With technology becoming so mobile I think most people have moved beyond cybercafes. The place will most likely become a hangout for the young professionals living there but I hope they also offer some outside seating and more extensive service. Could be a fun spot.

^ That is too funny. One would think they would be able to keep correct track of the "business" going on in their backyard.

I couldn't agree more. I knew the project was coming but didn't know the name. Horrible.

Is Chelsea South End, the deal that Kirco is doing?

Yep, it is.

I'll be interested to see how they pull this off as they haven't done any residential projects in the Charlotte market that I know of....or really anywhere for that matter...

They hired some guy as their marketing person and consultant with experience building vinyl siding townhomes in the 'burbs...

[atlrvr]

Interesting....isn't he involved in the apartments at the Honey Properties site? Maybe he's reformed his wayward suburban ways

Just looked at the llewellyn website. Those are some UGLY things they've built. Let's hope these guys realize South End isn't the same as suburban Raleigh. Otherwise, some pretty high-profile sites near uptown are going to end up looking like a standard apartment complex in Cary.

Let's hope he means what he says on his homepage...

...the endeavors must be in keeping with the long-term goals of the community, because we believe that developers have an ethical responsibility to ensure that each venture represents the highest and best use and functionality of the land for the long term.

Oh and your project better have a cool name.
