First Ward Urban Village

Plans are underway to redevelop 32 acres of underutilized land in the First Ward.

Plans call for a public investment of as much as $26 million in tax-increment financing from the city and county to help pay for improvements. UNC Charlotte’s new academic building will anchor the intial phase of the project with a three-acre park with underground parking as the centerpiece of the development.

• 2 million SF of office space
  
• 282,000 SF of retail space
  
• 2,150 residential units
