Developed by Childress Klein, this breaks ground next week and will be located south of Mint at MLK Blvd. It is currently a surface parking lot and the apartments will overlook the under-construction AAA baseball stadium and the under-construction Bearden Park.

23-floor SkyHouse Charlotte

Basically the same design as the SkyHouse apartments in Atlanta. I think Novare is using the same design to save money and building this in several cities - one is proposed for downtown Raleigh as well. Located on the west corner of N Tryon at 10th, the site is an empty lot that was going to be a Fifth Third Bank tower that had started site prep but was canceled because of the recession.
