M Street, Residential and Office, Center City Charlotte
This project expanded the borders of the Center City to I-277 when it was developed in 2007.  It was designed to create an urban streetscape at the prominent First Ward intersection of McDowell and Seventh Streets, which is considered a Center City gateway. First Ward is an urban renewal community where the initial redevelopment occurred in the early 1970s. The late 1990 wave of development included all housing types and mixed-income households, replacing the much of the 1970’s construction. M Street was comprised of three commercial units and 71 residential units.  Only two units were not sold at its completion.  It achieved the highest average unit square footages of the large scale Center City condominium projects at that time.
