Why Center City

Center City Charlotte is the heart of one of the nation’s fastest-growing metropolitan areas.

This is the central employment district for the City of Charlotte with businesses that range from design firms and retail shops in Historic South End to the government centers and financial, insurance, real estate, engineering and legal services companies that populate the growing skyline of Uptown Charlotte. We now have 83,000 workers in Uptown and South End.

This is also a thriving and diverse urban neighborhood with more than 15,000 residents. Our neighborhoods boast gleaming, high-rise condos, stately turn-of-the-century Victorian homes, apartments, town homes and houses for singles and growing families as well as a healthy mix of affordable and subsidized housing.

This is also the hospitality and entertainment center for our region. More than 25-million visitors (including more than a half million conventioneers) come to our Center City to visit our 120 restaurants and 50 nightspots. They come to see the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium and Charlotte Bobcats at the Time Warner Cable Arena as well as our cultural venues including the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center, NASCAR Hall of Fame, Discovery Place and ImaginOn and the Mint Museum Uptown, the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art and the Harvery B. Gantt Center for African American Arts + Culture.

Our Center City has it all.
