110 East

HASTINGS Architecture, LLC

South End is a rapidly developing neighborhood with historical roots in textile manufacturing. The lively area is known for its vibrant arts scene and since the opening of the Lynx Blue Line (along Camden Road) in 2007, has undergone a significant transition from abandoned factories to an eclectic mix of retail, residential, and office uses.

110 East rises 23 stories and includes office, 5,750 SF of retail, and 900 parking spaces. The design is inspired by South End’s pioneering spirit and history of textiles, enhancing the movement and activity spilling off the rail station.

Coordination and collaboration with the Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) were critical in assuring a seamless transition between the rail platform, ground floor retail, and the plaza space that fronts East Boulevard. The state-of-the-art building is pursuing WiredScore Certification, a commercial real estate rating system that improves and promotes a building’s digital infrastructure. Garnering certification ensures a building is tech-forward and prepared for the next generation of business tenants. The interior design focuses on using art to guide its users throughout the space while maximizing captivating views of the uptown skyline and surrounding neighborhoods.
