Entitled Mixed-Use Development Site South End Charlotte
0.93-acre fully entitled development site in Charlotte's most active mixed-use corridor.
Marketing description
2132 Hawkins Street is a fully entitled, 0.93-acre development site in South End Charlotte, one of the Southeast's most active and supply-constrained urban corridors. The site is zoned TOD-UC (Transit-Oriented Development - Urban Center), Charlotte's most permissive zoning designation, which permits hotel, multi-family, office, retail, and vertical mixed-use development. The approved program includes a 306-key dual-brand Marriott hotel combining a Residence Inn and Courtyard by Marriott - with both franchise approvals already secured from Marriott International. A qualified developer may also pursue an AC Hotels by Marriott in place of the Courtyard, with Marriott supportive of that transition.
The site offers a rare combination of completed entitlement work and a permit-ready pathway. Complete architectural drawings are available for separate purchase, allowing a buyer or ground lessee to move directly toward construction permitting and financing without restarting the pre-development process. For developers pursuing alternative programs - multi-family, office, or mixed-use - the TOD-UC designation and demonstrated entitlement pathway provide a meaningful head start in a competitive market.
South End is Charlotte's premier live-work-play district, anchored by 13,000+ residents, 130,000+ workers, and 100+ restaurants and bars within walking distance of the site. The corridor is home to Lowe's Tech Hub, LendingTree HQ, and a growing concentration of Fortune 500 regional offices along the Rail Trail. A new LYNX Blue Line station is currently under construction adjacent to the site, adding transit connectivity to an already walkable, high-demand submarket. 2132 Hawkins Street is offered unpriced on a ground lease basis, with fee sale considered for qualified buyers.
