South End
Suits people who want new apartment stock, breweries and murals along the rail-trail, with the East/West Blvd station about four minutes' walk away.
Charlotte's residential areas run from the tower-and-stadium grid of the center city out to corporate-park suburbs on the southern edge. In between sit close-in older districts of bungalows, porches and oak-lined avenues, plus former mill and industrial areas now built up with apartments, breweries and arts venues. Several areas sit within a short walk of a rapid-transit station, while others are car-based and quieter.
